SOL
Remember when the days were long
DO
and rolled beneath a deep blue sky
SOL
Didn't have a care in the world
DO RE
With mommy and daddy standing by
SOL
But happily ever after fails
DO
and we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
SOL
The lawyers dwell on small details
MIm DO RE
Since daddy had to fly
MIm7 SIm7 LAm7
Ah but I know a place where we can go
MIm7 DOmaj7 RE
That's still untouched by man
MIm7 SIm7 LAm7
We'll sit and watch the clouds go by
MIm7 DOmaj7 RE
and the tall grass wave in the wind
SOL RE DO
you can lay your head back on the ground
MIm7 SIm7 LAm7
And let your hair fall all around me
SOL RE DO
Offer up your best defense
MIm7 SIm7 LAm7 DOmaj7 RE
But this is the end, This is the end
SOL
Of the Innocence
Repeat Intro
Oh beautiful for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairytales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go
And wash away the sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds go by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
Let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end, This is the end
Of the Innocence
Who knows how long this will last
Or how we've come so far so fast
But somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the Innocence
Repeat Intro to end.
