Oh well the wAorld never seemed bigger
Than the sDummer of '98
ALiving out in the suburbs
DPlanning my escape
I grAew my hair to my shoulders
Formed a bDand with a couple of friends
And we cAalled ourselves The Devils Playhouse
InfluDences like Bruce and the band
And we'd sDing and plAay
SF#mimple three chord rC#mock and rDoll
And mDiles awAay
The oF#mther kids would jC#must grow oDld
But we're maDking our oAwn way oEut
Yeah we're maDking our oAwn way oEut
Intro
Well we'd prAactice every week in my bedroom
While my pDarents were working in town
And one mAorning in our school assembly
Played a cDover of "Don't Let Me Down"
The perfAormance was nervous and awkward
But the pDassion was real and profound
And the kAids in the audience laughing
While the bDand just looked at the ground
But the vDictoryA  
For the kF#mids who believe in rC#mock and rDoll
I knDow for mAe
That perF#mformance lives, it nC#mever grows Dold
But we're mDaking our oAwn way oEut
Yeah we're mDaking our oAwn way oEut
Well I'd gAive it all back just to do it again
Yeah I'd Dturn back time, be with my friends
Yeah I'd gAive it all back just to do it again
Turn back tDime, be with my friends
Yeah I'd gAive it all back just to do it again
TDurn back time and be with my friends
Yeah I'd gAive it all back just to do it again
TDurn back time, be wEith my friends
TonAight
Enjoy :)

Oh well the world never seemed bigger

Than the summer of '98

Living out in the suburbs

Planning my escape

I grew my hair to my shoulders

Formed a band with a couple of friends

And we called ourselves The Devils Playhouse

Influences like Bruce and the band

D A

And we'd sing and play

F#m C#m D

Simple three chord rock and roll

D A

And miles away

F#m C#m D

The other kids would just grow old

D A E

But we're making our own way out

D A E

Yeah we're making our own way out

Intro

Well we'd practice every week in my bedroom

While my parents were working in town

And one morning in our school assembly

Played a cover of "Don't Let Me Down"

The performance was nervous and awkward

But the passion was real and profound

And the kids in the audience laughing

While the band just looked at the ground

D A

But the victory

F#m C#m D

For the kids who believe in rock and roll

D A

I know for me

F#m C#m D

That performance lives, it never grows old

D A E

But we're making our own way out

D A E

Yeah we're making our own way out

Well I'd give it all back just to do it again

Yeah I'd turn back time, be with my friends

Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again

Turn back time, be with my friends

Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again

Turn back time and be with my friends

Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again

D E

Turn back time, be with my friends

Tonight

Enjoy :)
