Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
If I [D]had [F#m]a dollar, [G]if I had [D]a cent
I would play most [F#m]anywhere if
[G]it would pay my [A]rent
I'd be [G]livin' on the downside
in my old apartment
For the rest of my [A]days

[Verse 2]
[F#m]People always ask,
why [G]the world is on the run?
[F#m]People like you and like [G]me
[F#m]Is it really true you can
really [G]never win?
[A]Movin' to the upside,
tell me [Bm]when does the [A]fun begin
[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]Deep as the sea and as
wild as the weather
We will [G]go just you and me to pick
wild strawber[Asus4]ries togeth[A]er
Or be [D]livin' on our own,
in a cabin in a meadow
[G]Or meanderin' alone,
we can [A]face the world forever or we'll
[D]Hit the bounding

[Verse 4]
[G]main
or be [A]on a railroad [D]train
Hit the boundless [G]tide or be
[A]on a steamboat [D]ride
Hit the bounding [G]main or be
[A]on a midnight [D]plane
Hit the pounding [G]tide or be
[A]on a rainbow [D]ride

[Verse 5]
[F#m]People often ask me just
the way [G]it must feel
[F#m]To be standing up here
with you down [G]there
[F#m]Let it now be known that throughout
[G]all of these years
[A]I have [Bm]been wearing
polka dot [A]un [G]derwear

[Verse 6]
[D]Deep as the sea and as
wild as the weather
We [G]will go just you and me to gather
[Asus4]crabapplestogether[A]
And be wander[D]ing along toward
a cabin in the meadow
[G]Or meandering alone,
we can [A]face the world together or we'll

[Verse 7]
[D]Hit the bounding [G]main or
be [A]on a railroad [D]train
Hit the boundless [G]tide or be
[A]on a steamboat [D]ride
Hit the bounding [G]main or be
[A]on a midnight [D]plane
Hit the pounding [G]tide or be [A]on a rainbow
[D]ride

[Interlude 1]
[A][D][A][D][A][D][Esus4][A]
[D][A]

[Verse 8]
[F#m]People always ask why
the world [G]is on the slide?
[F#m]People like you and like [G]me
[F#m]Is it really true there will be no
[G]peace left to hide?
[A]Turning to the upside,
[Bm]when does the [A]fun begin
[G]

[Verse 9]
[A]Deep as [D]the sea and as
wild as the weather
We might [G]go just you and me to pick wild
strawber[Asus4]ries togeth[A]er
Or be [D]livin' on our own in
a cabin in a meadow
And [G]the cows will come home they can face
[A]the world forever and we'll
[D]Hit the bounding

[Verse 10]
[G]main
or be [A]on a railroad [D]train
Hit the boundless [G]tide or be
[A]on a steamboat [D]ride
Hit the bounding [G]main or be
[A]on a midnight [D]plane
Hit the pounding [G]tide or be
[A]on a rainbow [D]ride

[Verse 11]
[D]Hit the bounding [G]main or be
[A]on a midnight [D]plane
[G][A]
