[Intro]
F G F G
[Verse 1]
CDon't believe everything haFppiness says
CNothing feels better than hFiding these days
We buCry our feFars in the driCnks, in these tFears
AmFor the days we beliGeved we could fFlyG  
CCall up your brothers and sisFters and friends
We'll go bCack to the place where the nFight never ends
We'll remCember the fiFres, the burCning car tiFres
Boy Amhow in the hGell did we get heFre?G  
[Chorus]
So wChy don't you meet me, dFown behind the old school
We'll waCste away the weekend, with peAmrfect regGard for how
CCavalier we used to be, that beauFtiful insanity
The apaCthy's surrounding me
AmDon't close your eGyes or we'll faFde aCwayF  
[Verse 2]
COver and over and oFver again
We sat dCown for a minute, grew Fup into men
Now we're putCting out fiFres and chanCging car tiFres
Man hAmow in heGll did we get heFre?G  
[Chorus]
So wChy don't you meet me, dFown behind the old school
We'll waCste away the weekend, with peAmrfect regGard for how
CCavalier we used to be, that beauFtiful insanity
The apaCthy's surrounding me
AmDon't close your eGyes or we'll fDmade away this tGime
And we'll never get back what we
DmGave away, when we stGill have that fire in our eGyes
[Verse 3]
CDon't believe everything hapFpiness says
CNothings as real as our oFld reckless ways
When we drCink by the fiFres
The burCning car tiFres
Bad giCrls and good liFars
The dreCams we'd conFspire
The dAmays we went crGazy
The niCghts wild and hFazy
Man Amhow in the hGell did we get heFre?G  
[Chorus]
So wChy don't you meet me, dFown behind the old school
We'll waCste away the weekend, with peAmrfect regGard for how
CCavalier we used to be, that beauFtiful insanity
The apaCthy's surrounding me
AmDon't close your eGyes or we'll faCde...
why don't you meet me, dowFn behind the old school
We'll waCste away the weekend, with peAmrfect regGard for how
CCavalier we used to be, that beauFtiful insanity
The apaCthy's surrounding me
AmDon't close your eGyes or we'll faFde
