Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][C][D][C]
[G]I'ma

[Verse 1]
gonna
build myself a time [C]machine
On [G]particle physics and the [C]power steam
[G]It runs on diesel oil and [C]Donnie
[D]Darko day[C]dreams
[G]Packed a pair of socks and
a [C]hunting riffle
[G]Change of underwear and some
[C]snacks to trifle
[G]Scared of going back you [C]know
how I'm [D]forget[C]ful

[Verse 2]
[Em]
[E]To go bac[A]k and t[D]o see [E]the
way [C]thing[G]s really used to [E]be
Not the [D]way we [C]re member them

[Interlude 1]
at all
[G][C][G][C][G][C][D][C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Packed up, sat in [C]my DeLorean
[G]Like some kind of amateur [C]historian
I'll vis[G]it the Renaissance and the Ro[C]mans,
the Vic[D]tori[C]ans
[G]Drinking in Deadwood in [C]the 1880s
[G]Rock and roll and drive
thrus in [C]the 1950s
[G]Trying not to change things so [C]the plot
lines don't get shitty
[D][C]

[Verse 4]
[E]
To go [A]back an[D]d to s[E]ee the way
[C]things really [G]used to [E]be
Not the [A]way [D]we [C]remember [E]them
To go [A]back an[D]d to s[E]ee the way
[C]things really used to [Em]be[E]
Not the [A]way we [D]remem
[C]ber them at all
[Eb][F][G]

[Verse 5]
'Cause [Eb]I can[F]'t re ca[G]ll,
you [Eb]tell [F]it to me [Bb]false[F]
What if [Ab]everything were
[G]to change completely
If [C]you just saw a replay of
the crucial scenes
From the pas[D]senger window of a time

[Interlude 2]
machine
[G][C][G][C][G][C][D][C]
[G]In truth

[Verse 6]
the real reason that
I [C]built this here machine
[G]Was just to travel back a cou[C]ple of years
To when [G]we first met before
[C]the fights and tea[D]rs[C]
To [G]a time when you and
I first [C]got together
Sim[G]ple days and simple words
[C]like "forever"
[G]Dripped off our tongues,
come [C]on you must re[D]mem[C]ber

[Verse 7]
[E]
To go [A]back an[D]d to s[E]ee the way
[C]things really [G]used to [E]be
Before life [A]quietly [D]dis[C]mem[E]bers
All the [A]be st [D]thing[E]s about you [C]an
d I [G]before the [E]doubts
Drowned out [A]all [D]of the [C]mirth and mercy
Come on baby please you must remem
[G]ber[C][G][C][G][C][D][C]

[Outro 1]
Please remember
[G][C][G][C][G][C][D]
[G]
