Intro:
Bb F Bb Gm Bb F Bb

Verse 1:
  Bb           F        Bb             Gm
I saw somebody die out upon the road today
       Bb                F                    Bb               Eb
I felt lives dissolve on side-streets as that head hit the highway
      Bb               F            Bb               Gm
I see first responders rush in as a white plume dissipates
          Bb                 F              Bb
Trying to pull their will to power from the flames

Verse 2:
            Bb             F                      Bb              Gm
Now there's miles of angry motorists stretched as far as eyes can see
            Bb                F                Bb           Eb
There are a billion breathing beings each with schedules to keep
           Bb               F                 Bb                 Gm
They get a long look at the tow truck as they sit and grit their teeth
       Bb                 F                    Bb
Hating that which comes between them and their coffee

Verse 3:
    Bb             F                Bb                  Gm
I'm on that ribbon highway and I've seen some sickening things
    Bb                   F                 Bb                 Eb
One good kid smashed to splinters, another wicked one crowned king
    Bb                 F                  Bb          Gm
And upon the pavement, for each and every particle of glass
            Bb              F                Bb
There are a thousand dreams never to come to pass

Chorus: 
        Bb                   F               Gm
Because dreams can't be, nor people, indeed, built to last, built to last
Bb                            Gm
Built to last, built to last. Built to last, built to last.
Bb                            Eb
Built to last, built to last. Built to last, built to last.
Bb                            Eb                      F
Built to last, built to last. Built to last, built to last.

Verse 4:
      Bb                  F                        Bb             Gm
I've adored every inch of this country through the same dirty windshield
                Bb              F                     Bb          Eb
Peeking through blotches of the blood of bugs towards the Elysian Fields
  Bb                F                      Bb         Gm
Behold my brother's beautiful babies! It's obvious to see
                 Bb              F             Bb
The world's been making plans to go on without me

Verse 5:
          Bb                  F                      Bb               Gm
I gave my youth to yelling at rivers that refused to flood with angry tears
     Bb             F        Bb             Eb
Now abundant beers await to erase redundant years
           Bb             F                      Bb       Gm
So there's nothing for me to do now but turn the radio up loud
           Bb              F               Bb
Put Eric's sunglasses back on and black it out

Verse 6:
        Bb          F             Bb       Gm
Now I'm writing manifestos on old B.O.A. receipts
          Bb        F             Bb                Eb
I know it only is alfresco when I take meals in the streets
          Bb               F                    Bb            Gm
There was promise in these pages once, now they rot under the rain
         Bb          F                Bb
Of their wisdom, all that remains are stains

Chorus 2:
         Bb                      F          Gm
Because, just like me, they were made to be thrown away, thrown away.
Bb                        Gm
Thrown away, thrown away. Thrown away, thrown away.
Bb                        Eb
Thrown away, thrown away. Thrown away, thrown away.
Bb                        Eb                     F
Thrown away, thrown away. Thrown away, thrown away.
