Intro:   G5   Gsus2   Gmaj   Gsus2   Am7   Em/A   Em   D5/A   C   Cadd9   C   C (2x) 

G 
Remember when the days were long 
        C 
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky 
G 
Didn't have a care in the world 
C                     D 
With mommy and daddy standin' by 
G 
But 'happily ever after' fails 
C 
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales 
G 
The lawyers dwell on small details 
Em        C          D 
Since daddy had to fly 


Em            Bm             Am7 
But I know a place where we can go 
Em            C               D 
That's still untouched by men 
Em            Bm            Am7 
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by 
Em            C               D 
And the tall grass wave in the wind 
       G           D       C 
Just lay your head back on the ground 
Em            Bm            Am7 
And let your hair fall all around me 
G      D     C 
Offer up your best defense 
Em       Bm        Am7 
But this is the end 
C        D              G         Gsus2   Gmaj   Gsus2   Am7   Em/A   Em   D5/A   C   Cadd9   C   C 
This is the end of the innocence 


G 
O' beautiful, for spacious skies 
C 
But now those skies are threatening 
    G 
They're beating plowshares into swords 
     C             D 
For this tired old man that we elected king 
G 
Armchair warriors often fail 
            C 
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales 
   G 
The lawyers clean up all details 
Em    C        D 
Since daddy had to lie 


Em            Bm             Am7 
But I know a place where we can go 
Em            C               D 
And wash away this sin 
Em            Bm            Am7 
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by 
Em            C               D 
And the tall grass wave in the wind 
       G           D       C 
Just lay your head back on the ground 
Em            Bm            Am7 
And let your hair spill all around me 
G      D     C 
Offer up your best defense 
Em       Bm        Am7 
But this is the end 
C        D              G         Gsus2   Gmaj   Gsus2   Am7   Em/A   Em   D5/A   C   Cadd9   C   C 
This is the end of the innocence 



G 
Who knows how long this will last 
C 
Now we've come so far, so fast 
G 
But, somewhere back there in the dust 
C        D 
That same small town in each of us 
G 
I need to remember this 
C 
So baby give me just one kiss 
G 
And let me take a long last look 
Em     C      D  
Before we say goodbye 


       G           D       C 
Just lay your head back on the ground 
Em            Bm            Am7 
And let your hair fall all around me 
G      D     C 
Offer up your best defense 
Em       Bm        Am7 
But this is the end 
C        D              G         Gsus2   Gmaj   Gsus2   Am7   Em/A   Em   D5/A   C   Cadd9   C   C 
This is the end of the innocence 

            G5   Gsus2   Gmaj   Gsus2   Am7   Em/A   Em   D5/A   C   Cadd9   C   C   x2
