*Riff plays x2 here*
Bb A G F
*Rhythm guitars start*
[Verse 1]
   Bb                  Am
Sometimes when I'm in heaven
          Gm                    F
I get forgetful of the earth, woah
        Bb                                Am
Until I hear you bickering like boys and birds
            Gm
The heat is on
                            F
Bakes up when the sheet is down
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                     Am
I got a pocket full of deadliness
Dm              C
Opium den mother forget my head
       Bb                Am
At the dead-end called unsteadiness
Dm             E    F
Boxed blondes have less fun
[Chorus]
            F
Boomerang my head
                            C
Back to the city I grew up in
           Am
Again and again and again and again

Forever a lake effect kid

*Riff plays x2 here*
[Verse 2]
             Bb             Am
I've got the skyline in my veins
             Gm
Forget your night times
                               F
Summer love on a gurney with a squeaky wheel
    Bb
And joke us, joke us
     Am
'til Lakeshore Drive goes back into focus
Gm
I just wanna come back to life
F
Spark until you hit or give your woman love
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb                     Am
I got a pocket full of deadliness
Dm              C
Opium den mother forget my head
       Bb                Am
At the dead-end called unsteadiness
Dm             E    F
Boxed blondes have less fun, fun
[Chorus]

Boomerang my head
