[Intro]
Dadd4    Em7    Dmaj7add11/F#    Em7
 
 
[Verse 1]
   Dadd4             Em7
We run back home and I'm thirteen
     Dmaj7add11/F#   Em7    Em9
Just waiting for the payoff
Dadd4                  Em7
This house smells like old routines
     Dmaj7add11/F#  Em7    Em9
And daddy just got laid off
 
Dadd4    Em7    Dmaj7add11/F#    Em7   Em9
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dadd4              Em7
We traced stencils on the wall
     Dmaj7add11/F#    Em7   Em9
It's fun until it isn't
Dadd4             Em7
You get bored and I get taller
Dmaj7add11/F#        Em7   Em9
Till this room won't fit us
 
 
[Chorus]
Dadd4       Em7
Follow the grass to the street
    Dmaj7add11/F#     G     Dmaj7add11/F# Em7  Dadd4
The cardboard box we turned in     -      to a sled
              Em7            Dmaj7add11/F#
Dance in the glow of the TV screen
           G     Gm     Dadd4
It will be us until the end
 
Em7    Dmaj7add11/F#    Em7   Em9
 
 
[Verse 3]
Dadd4           Em7
I force you to film me sing
     Dmaj7add11/F#      Em7   Em9
Some random song I made up
Dadd4            Em7
Mom is gone for work again
    Dmaj7add11/F# Em7
The babysitter   feeds us
 
 
[Bridge]
          Bm      Aadd4
We're too old for this
        G       Dadd4
We have iPhones now
        Em7                       Dmaj7add11/F# G
And I'm pretty sure Barbara stays ho     -      me alone
                    Aadd4
When her mom goes out
          Bm     Aadd4 G             Dadd4           Em7  Em9
We're too old to have fun the way we used to at thirteen
          Em7    Dmaj7add11/F#  G        Gsus2
But we've always been who we'll always be
 
 
[Chorus]
Dadd4       Em7
Follow the grass to the street
    Dmaj7add11/F#     G     Dmaj7add11/F# Em7  Dadd4
The cardboard box we turned in     -      to a sled
              Em7            Dmaj7add11/F#
Dance in the glow of the TV screen
           G     Gm     Dadd4    Em7
It will be us until the end
    Dmaj7add11/F#  Em7   Em9   D
The end
