Intro: G G/F# Em7 (2x)
G G/F# Em7
Did you ever loan me that song?
G G/F# Em7
Did you ever know me at all?
G G/F# Em7
You listen to the world going wrong,
G G/F# Em7
Looking through a hole in the wall
G G/F# Em7
Shovin' our lovin' away,
G G/F# Em7
Leaving our light on the side
G G/F# Em7
Never once looking to say,
G G/F# Em7
We got the ride of our lives
Cadd9 Dsus2
Did we ever find a way,
G G/F# Em7
To steer through the cold light of day?
Cadd9 Dsus2
Cause we're just passing through,
Asus4 Cadd9
And it ain't what you done but it is what you do
G G/F# Em7
Soon as time comes and goes,
G G/F# Em7
Soon on the verge of who knows
G G/F# Em7
A sound, we're dancing around
G G/F# Em7
Turn up the music and drown
Cadd9 Dsus2
Did we ever find a way,
G G/F# Em7
To steer through the cold light of day?
Cadd9 Dsus2
Cause we're just passing through,
Asus4 Cadd9
And it ain't what you done but it is what you do
G G/F# Em7
Let's go
G G/F# Em7
Let's go
Bm
Some people change,
Cadd9
Move out of range,
Bm
All in a day,
Cadd9 Dsus2
So long,
Dsus2
So long
G G/F# Em7 (2x)
So let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go
Did you ever loan me that song?
Did you ever know me at all?...
