But Amall I read was maps of the road
And I was Cthree thousand miles away from you
GAll the while I was twenty-two
GWhat do you do, and who you are
The Ambest way for me is to drop out on tour
Well, Cyou were Upstate and to go to school
To Gsecure the roll with your parents
[Chorus 1]
And GI've got a Amnew persCpective on Gyou
GAll the Amgood and bad that Cwe went Gthrough
I know you Gbetter than     Am  Cyou know Gyou
'Cause BI got a Cnew perspective on Gyou

I Gnever needed much, I never liked to loom
But a Amgesture can get me from across the room
The first Cnight we talked til the sun came up
TransGparent people melting all around us
You Gleft in a plane, I left in a van
We played Amnightclubs house-parties and auditoriums
I saw CGermany England Italy with my band
GI know you girl better than your new friends
[Chorus 2]
And GI've got a Amnew persCpective on Gyou

The best way for me is to drop out on tour

Well, you were Upstate and to go to school

To secure the roll with your parents
