Intro: A C#m F#m D  (2x) 


verse 1 

A     C#m 
  You take these  
       F#m       D 
sticks and stones 
A       C#m 
  And apply what  
         F#m    D 
you have learned 
A 
  But you ain't  
C#m    F#m 
got no water 
D 
  So you let that  
A     C#m    F#m D 
motherfucker burn 
         E 
Yeah it smoked up 
       D 
and it burned out 


verse 2
 
       A          C#m 
Like a graduation bonfire 
    F#m             D    A C#m F#m D 
two miles from your house 
A             C#m        F#m D 
  And you had nowhere to go 
A             C#m 
  so you came right back 
F#m D A           C#m 
here   I couldn't find what 
    F#m   D        A 
you wanted so you slapped me 
       C#m 
in the face and spilled my  
F#m D             E 
beer And when the mess 
             D 
dried up you came up singing 


A        D 
  Let us drink from 
    E 
the hourglass 
A        D 
  We can make time 
 E   A 
stop Watch from the 
E/G#      F#m 
window upstairs 
           E 
While they all 
     D    E 
kick rocks 
while they all 
A         C#m F#m D A C#m F#m D 
kick rocks 


verse 2: 

            A 
And I miss smoking 
       C#m F#m D 
in the fall  
            A 
And pissing on that  
C#m         F#m D 
gas station wall 
         A 
What's a law? What's  
  C#m            F#m 
a fire? What's a river? 
   D           A       C#m F#m D 
We jumped over them all 
               E 
But I guess my legs got  
             D 
tired and my teeth got long 
           A 
I guess my legs got  
C#m          F#m       D 
tired and my teeth got long 



A           D 
  So take a sip from 
    E 
the hourglass 
A        D 
  We can make time 
 E   A 
stop Watch from 
    E/G#      F#m 
the window upstairs 
           E 
While they all 
     D    E 
kick rocks 



Bridge:
 
C#m 
   I tried to write  
      F#m 
you a passage 
D 
   But you're holding  
            A    E/G# 
out for the flick 
F#m                 D 
Wait outside by the exit 
                        E 
When they don't let you in 



A           D 
  So we can drink  
         E 
from the hourglass 
A        D 
  We can make time 
 E   A 
stop Watch from 
    E/G#      F#m 
the window upstairs 
           E 
While they all 
     D    E 
kick rocks 
A 
Watch from 
    E/G#      F#m 
the window upstairs 
           E 
While they all 
     D    E 
kick rocks 
while they all 
A         C#m F#m D 
kick rocks
