Bb                           Dm/A
Back back way back I used to front like Angkor Wat
  Gm                        Bb/F
Mechanicsburg Anchorage and Dar es Salaam
      Eb                   Bb/D
While home in New York was champagne and disco
Eb              F
Tapes from L.A. slash San Francisco
    Bb                   Dm/A
But actually Oakland and not Alameda
     Gm                            Bb/F
Your girl was in Berkeley with her Communist reader
Eb                       Bb/D
Mine was entombed within boombox and Walkman
Eb                  F
I was a hoarder but girl that was back then

    Bb                  Dm/A             Gm
The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
         Bb/F
What you on about?
  Eb            Bb/D      Eb            F
I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    Bb                 Dm/A          Gm
I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
       Bb/F
Such a modest mouse,
  Eb           Bb/D    Eb            F
I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone

Bb               Dm/A                  Gm                Bb/F

Bb                     Dm/A
Ancestors told me that their girl was better
       Gm                        Bb/F
She's richer than Croesus, she's tougher than leather
Eb                     Bb/D
I just ignored all the tales of a past life
Eb                    F
Stale conversation deserves but a bread knife
     Bb                             Dm/A
And punks who would laugh when they saw us together
      Gm                      Bb/F
Well, they didn't know how to dress for the weather
Eb                         Bb/D
I can still see them there huddled on Astor
Eb                        F
Snow falling slow to the sound of the master

    Bb                  Dm/A             Gm
The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
         Bb/F
What you on about?
  Eb            Bb/D      Eb            F
I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    Bb                 Dm/A          Gm
I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
       Bb/F
Such a modest mouse,
  Eb           Bb/D    Eb            F
I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone

 
Bb      Dm/A      Gm      Bb/F      Eb      Bb/D      Eb      F  


Bb                          Dm/A
Wisdom's a gift, but you'd trade it for youth
Gm                     Cm
Age is an honor, it's still not the truth
Eb                         Bb/D
We saw the stars when they hid from the world
Eb                          F
You cursed the sun when it stepped to your girl
Bb                     Dm/A
Maybe she's gone and I can't resurrect her
     Gm                       Cm
The truth is she doesn't need me to protect her
Eb                          Bb/D
We know the true death, the true way of all flesh
Eb                    F
Everyone's dying, but girl you're not old yet

    Bb                  Dm/A             Gm
The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
         Bb/F
What you on about?
  Eb            Bb/D      Eb            F
I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    Bb                 Dm/A          Gm
I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
       Bb/F
Such a modest mouse,
  Eb           Bb/D    Eb            F
I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone 
[x2]
