D     Db/D    B/D   A/D    G    F#m/G 
Jennifer dates a man in a 60s cover band 
Em        A 
He's the Ess-dog, or Sean if you wish 
D     Db/D    B/D 
She's 18, he's 31 
A/D    G    F#m/G 
She's a rich girl, he's the son 
Em        A 
Of a Coca-Cola middle man 

G            D 
Kiss when they listen 
G            D 
To 'Brothers In Arms' 
G            D 
And if there's something wrong with this 
G            D 
They don't see the harm 
Em           G 
In joining their forces and singing along 

D     Db/D    B/D   A/D    G    F#m/G 
See those rings on her toes Check that frisbee in his Volvo 
Em        A 
It's a Volvo with ancient plates 
D     Db/D    B/D 
They've got a dog she named Trey 
A/D    G    F#m/G   Em        A 
A retriever with a frayed bandana around his neck 

G            D 
Trey has a window into their relationship 
G            D 
The baby talk voices 
G            D 
And the post class-a nasal drip 
G            D 
But it all seems to function 
Em           G 
At least in her dog's mind 

A 
Let me out of here 

Let me out of here 

You got to let me out of here 

You got to let me out of here 

Let me out of here 

Out of here 

Out of here, out of here 

Let me out of here ill hit the ground running 

D     Db/D    B/D   A/D    G    F#m/G 
Jennifer left for school up in Boulder 
Em        A 
And the Ess-dog came to visit when he could 
D     Db/D    B/D 
But the strain was too much 
A/D    G    F#m/G 
They could not make up for distance 
Em        A 
And the distance between their years 

G            D 
Neither one listens 
G            D 
To 'Brothers In Arms' 
G            D 
The Ess-dog waits tables 
G            D 
And he sold his guitar 
Em           G 
Jenny pledged Kappa and she started pre-law 

And off came those awful toe rings 

Off came those awful toe rings
