[Intro 1]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][D][Gm][D][Gm][D][Gm]
[D][Gm]

[Verse 1]
[D]The children had all[Gm] left home
[Cm]The house was like a ship without a sail
They [F]headed for [Bb]the sunset
[A]Where maybe they would find
[Gm]a holy grail
The bed[D]rooms were [Gm]all rigged up
[Cm]The posters of Marc Bolan ripped away
Each [F]day was blessed with [Bb]freedom
[A]As they would try to find
something [G#]to say
[F#]She [D#m]kept a little journal
[C#m]He sca[G#]nned them out to see
[E]If they could find Nir[F#]vana
[C#]And [E]where that place
[D]might [Gm]be[D][Gm]
[D]She had[Gm] lots of things to do
[Cm]They kept the plastic covers
on the chairs
[F]It drove him around [Bb]the twist
[A]They both were wondering what
they [Ab]might have missed.
[F#]He q[D#m]uibbled with ambition
[C#m]She fe[G#]ll into a rut
[E]They sat and read the pa[F#]per [C#]s
[E]In sequence they would [F#]touch[C#]
[E]The creeping [F#]realisation
[C#]Like[E] a punch in the gut[D][Gm][D][Gm]
[D]Each day like the one[Gm] before
[Cm]The dreams evaporated
As the weeks and [F]months turned into [Bb]years
[A]The queasy feeling that they wan[G#]ted more
[F#]He s[D#m]aid his word was final
[C#m]She he[G#]ard him slam the door
[E]Anytime she would [F#]pipe up
[E]He heard it all [F#]before
[E]Although they [B]blame each [F#]other[E]
Really they knew the [F#]score[C#]
[E]They were in [B]this [D#m]to get[F#]her
[E]Like children [B]holding back [F#]tears
[E]They've come so [B]far [D#m]to end[F#] up
[E]With nothing [B]down [D]the years
