[Intro]
A F#m E D A
[Verse 1]
AAfter the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
F#mTalk becomes slow, but there's one thing I'll never foErget
Hey, you gotta pay your dues befDore you pay the rAent
OAver the turnstiles and out in the traffic
There's F#mways of living; It's the way I'm living
Right or wrEong, it's all that I can do and I wouDldn't wanna let you Abe
[Chorus]
I want a rC#mange life
If I could seF#mttle down
If I could seBmttle down
Then I would seF#mttle down
I want a rC#mange life
If I could seF#mttle down
If I could seBmttle down
Then I would sF#mettle down
E x3
[Verse 2]
ARun from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat
F#mPass me your gloves, this crime, it is never compElete
Until you snort it up and shoot it down, you're neDver gonna feel frAee
AOut on my skateboard, the night is just humming
And the F#mgums smacks are the pulse I'll follow if my Walkman faEdes
But I've got absolutely no one, no one but myDself to blAame
[Pre-Chorus]
EBut don't worry, weD're in no huArry
BmSchool's out, wDhat did you exApect?
[Chorus]
I want a raC#mnge life
If I could seF#mttle down
If I could seBmttle down
Then I would F#msettle down
I want a raC#mnge life
If I could seF#mttle down
If I could seBmttle down
Then I would F#msettle down
[Verse 3]
AOut on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins
F#mNature kids, I, they don't have no function
EI don't understand what they mean and I coDuld really give a fuAck
AThe Stone Temple Pilots, they're elegant bachelors
F#mThey're foxy to me, are they foxy to you?
EI will agree they deserve absolutely nothing, nDothing more than Ame
[Outro]
EDreamin', dream dream dream dream drAeam

Pass me your gloves, this crime, it is never complete

Until you snort it up and shoot it down, you're never gonna feel free
