Intro: Dm C/E F C/E x2

               Dm             C/E    F
Let's go for a drive, see the town tonight
        C/E        Dm                       C/E          F
There's nothing to do but I don't mind when I'm with you

C/E Dm C/E F

     C/E       Dm           C/E         F
This town's so strange they built it to change
    C/E      Dm                               C/E       F
And while we sleep we know its streets were rearranged
C/E    Dm               C/E         F
My old friends, can't remember when
  C/E       Dm              C/E       F
Before your war against the suburbs began
  C/E      Dm    C/E   F
Before it began

        C/E   F     C/E       Dm
Now the music divides us into tribes
C/E       F                       C/E   Dm
Grew your hair so I'll grew mine
       C/E        F           C/E          Dm                         C/E F
So the past won't rest , Till you jump the fence and leave it behind

C/E    Dm               C/E           F
My old friends, I can remember when
    C/E      Dm            C/E            F
You cut your hair, I never saw you again
        C/E       Dm               C/E     F
Now the cities we live in could be distant stars
      C/E          Dm           C/E     F
And I searched for you in every passing car

F        G   Am  C G
  It was so long

F               G   Am  C G
  Yeah it was so long
          F                   G   Am         C G   
I've been living in the shadows of your song
  F                   G   Am         C G 
Living in the shadows of your song

Dm C/E F C/E x2

       C/E     Dm   C/E        F
In the suburbs I, I learned to drive
    C/E     Dm                      C/E        F
You told me we would never survive,
   C/E                Dm                     C/E        F
So grab your mother's keys we leave tonight

       C/E       Dm       C/E      F
But we started a war that we can't win
        C/E             Dm             C/E        F
We keep erasing all the streets we grew up in
            C/E     Dm       C/E          F
And now the music divides us into tribes
       C/E  Dm         C/E       F
Choose your side, I'll choose my side

Dm C/E F

       Bb          Am            Bb     Dm   C/E F   
But my old friends they don't know me now
       Bb              Am       Bb       Dm  C/E F
But my old friends are staring through me now
       Bb          Am         Bb       Dm  C/E F
But my old friends they don't know me now
       Bb          Am         Bb      Dm  C/E F
But my old friends they don't know me now
Am         Bb         Dm  C/E F
They don't know me now
           Bb       Am
But my old friends, they
