[Verse 1]
[G]Somebody screamed and all of Jim Jeffries dreams
Explode against a black [F]fist
He falls to the floor
He stares up at [G]the sky and he may
wish he knew why
But he can't go [F]back there no more

[Verse 2]
[Am]Future sounds so crazy
We've all [C]heard that song before
Tomor[Am]row's the name we change
from yesterday to blame
When the train just don't [C]stop here anymore

[Verse 3]
I got starry[G]-eyed on on the coaster ride
Andy says "Man,
[F]I need a break from the world outside
These days my [G]life just careens
through a pinball machine
I could do so much bet[F]ter but
I can't get off the TILT"

[Verse 4]
There's a photo[Am]graph on the TV
Black and white and
[C]Andy says something to you
[Am]Jack Johnson straddling Reno,
Nevada like
She says [G]"I forget [C]myself
sometimes too"

[Verse 5]
Out past the [Am]doorways where
we are sleeping
[Dsus4]The White Queens creep
and the tomcats peep

[Verse 6]
And [C]now I'm not breaking
The [D]train's just shaking
And I've [G]never made it here before
[C]There's a Wild Mouse
spinning the [Dsus4]girls around
[D]Til the[G]y can't take it anymore
[C]I used to dream in the dark
[D]of Palisades Park
[G]Up over the cliffs and [C]down
among the sparks
It's a long life full of [D]long nights
But [Em]it's not what I was
[D]waiting [C]for
[F]Everybody's seen the [Em]horses
diving down [A]the shore
It's a mir[Em]acle they don't make
them anymore
[A][Dsus4]

[Verse 7]
So..."Make up ladies"...Wake up baby
[G]You walked into the bar

[Verse 8]
[G]like
some Saturday star
Stud-straight on on [F]spiked heels
and needles and nerves
You're a down[G]town pride
fully-amplified Clyde
Clyde
Gin-tight and and [F]aging but
well-preserved

[Verse 9]
[F]Remember Remember Andy stand[Am]ing
outside your bedroom window
Saying "Come on,
let's [C]drive across to the Palisades
[Am]Keep going til we hit Reno, Nevada"
Don't see Andy all [C]that much these days

[Verse 10]
[C]Still there [Am]are pages in back
of the Action stacks
Where [D]the White [Dsus4]Queens creep
and the tomcats peep
And [D]the train's

[Verse 11]
[C]not braking
The track[D]'s just shaking
And [G]I never made it here before
[C]There's a Sky Rocket
turning the [D]world around
Til I [G]can't take it anymore
[C]You can carry that spark
from Pal[D]isades Park
[G]Down over the cliffs and
[C]out into the dark
It's a long life full of [D]long nights
And [Em]it's not what I was
[D]looking [C]for
[F]Everybody dreams of [Em]horses
flying 'round [A]the shore
It's [C]a bad dream we're not
hav[D]ing [G]anymore

[Verse 12]
[G]Man, have [Am]you seen Andy?
[G]Hey man, have you seen her[Am] around?
Hey [G]man, have you seen my my my
[Am]Andy?
Hey man, have you seen her?
Have you [G]seen him?
Have you seen her?
You seen Andy [Am]around?

[Verse 13]
[G]Dressed up in our pirate best
[Am]All leathers and feathers and pearls
[Dsus4]Andy said "Look at me man!
[C]I am cookin'
These hands could finger [G]up
this whole world!"

[Verse 14]
He says "Come [G]outside
Climb [Am]out your bedroom window
[Dsus4]Shimmy down the fire esca[D]pe
[C]And say goo[G]dbye"

[Verse 15]
Come [G]outside
Andy says "I'm dressed
up just like [Am]Edie
Changing all the time
[Dsus4]These leopard spots to
[C]polka dot[Dsus4]s
And say [G]goodbye"

[Verse 16]
Come [G]outside
Maybe we could [Am]move to California
[Dsus4]Just meet me a[D]t the subway
[C]And say goo[G]dbye

[Verse 17]
Come [G]outside
The cops all think we're [Am]crazy
But if you stay, you'll just get mar[D]ried
To a girl who'll never know you
And [G]then say [D]goodbye

[Verse 18]
[G]Hey Man, have you seen Andy?
I [Am]lost her in the sun
I was high [Dsus4]as a kite on Lovely & White
Man, [G]you could lose anyone

[Verse 19]
Hey [G]man, have you [D]seen [G]Andy
[Am]I don't know where he's gone
[Dsus4]Real love outlives
teenage lust
We could get [G]wet and it keeps

[Verse 20]
us warm
[Dsus4]Love is like Angel Dust
Lovely sometimes [G]changes
us...sometimes not
[Dsus4]Have you been aching
to trust or just...?
[Am]Have you been waking
yourself with lust...?
[C]Have you been making us up or
just taking us home?

[Verse 21]
[G]It's a long wait at a long light
Cars frozen in flight
All the traf[F]fic stops to stare

[Verse 22]
At [Am]a crosswalk in Reno, Nevada
[C]Wearing nothing but air
And a pair of grey [Am]paper wings
Andy thinks "I [C]got nothing [G]to [C]wear"

[Verse 23]
[Am]We got nothing new and...
[C]We got nothing to wear...
[Am]We got nothing to wear...
We got nothing to wear...
