Verso 1: 
B7                          E 
 We took the freeway out of town 
B7                          E 
 We found a place to settle down 
B7                          G#             C#m  E7 
 We bought a driveway and a swingset and a dog 
                      Amaj7 
You got your very own bathroom 
                  Am7 
I got my very own workshop in the basement 
              E       G#     C#m     A 
We sit around staring at the wall-to-wall 
     E           G#     C#m      A 
Take field trips to our favorite mall 
E       G#      C#m      A       F#m              B7 
Waiting for the day when all the kids grow up and leave us here 


E If you need me B7 I'll be downstairs E With the shop vac A E You can call but I probably won't hear you F#m B7sus4 Because it's loud with the shop vac on B7 (for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on) E But you'll be OK B7 Cause you'll be upstairs E With the TV A E You can cry and I probably won't hear you F#m B7 E A E Because it's loud with the shop vac on
Verso 2: B7 E We hung a flag above the door B7 E Checked out the gourmet grocery store B7 G# C#m E7 I bought a mower I can ride around the yard Amaj7 But we haven't got real friends Am7 And now even the fake ones have stopped calling E G# C#m A Maybe if you forget to hide the keys E G# C#m A I'll take a ride to Applebee's E G# C#m A F#m B7 I'll come home drunk on daiquiris and throw up on the neighbor's lawn
E If you need me B7 I'll be downstairs E With the shop vac A E You can call but I probably won't hear you F#m B7sus Because it's loud with the shop vac on B7 (for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on) E But you'll be OK B7 Cause you'll be upstairs E With the TV A E You can cry and I probably won't hear you F#m B7 E A E Because it's loud with the shop vac on
Ponte: Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 I like the Starbucks here that's better than the other one G Cause the other one's not as good Cmaj7 C#m7/b5 D They really need to put a light there cause it's hard to turn B7 It's hard to make a left turn (Solo) Verso 3: B7 E And when it's time to go to bed B7 E I'm still awake inside my head B7 G# C#m E7 I'm floating up above the house and looking down Amaj7 I guess I gotta go back there Am7 I guess there never was any other answer E G# C#m A And as the freeway hums the cars go by E G# C#m A The headlights roll across the sky E G# C#m A F#m B7 Many miles away but I can see them speeding through the dark
E If you need me B7 I'll be downstairs E With the shop vac A E You can call but I probably won't hear you F#m B7sus Because it's loud with the shop vac on B7 (for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on) E But you'll be OK B7 Cause you'll be upstairs E With the TV A E You can cry and I probably won't hear you F#m B7 E A E Because it's loud with the shop vac on
