FWhen all is said and done
GmWe're not the only ones

Well I Bbguess I'd have more fun
FGuess I'd have more funGm  Bb

AmThe catcher in the Dmrye again
AmWon't let you get Bbaway from him
It's just another Gday like Ftoday
FWhen all is said and done
GWe're not the only ones
FWho look at life this way
GThat's what the young folks say
FAnd if they'd ever change
GThat's not who am I to say
But Cevery time I'd see them
Makes me Bbwish I had a gun
If I Cthought that I was crazy
Well I Bbguess I'd have more fun
'Cause what Fused to be's not there for me
And Bbought to find someone that belongs insaGne like I do

On an Fordinary day
Not in an Amordinary way
All at Dmonce the song I heard
No Bblonger wouldn't play
For anyFbody
Or anyAmone
That needed Dmcomfort from somebody
Needed Bbcomfort from someone
Who careFd To Ambe
Not like Dmyou and Bbunlike me
And then the voices ran aFway
From mAme
So now you sDmet the wheels in motion
It Bbhaunts our memories
You were the Finstrument
You were the Gone
How a Dmbody took a body
And Bbgave that boy a gun
You took our Finnocence
Beyond our Amstares
Sometimes the Dmonly thing you got at all
When Bbno one else is there
FAh Amah Dmah Bbah...
