Kids 1995

 
Amaj7                    E 
     I watched the movie Kids 
                           C#m 
And then had a dream about you and me 
                
But things are different 
                 Amaj7 
You're holding a camera 
           E 
And you're yelling cut 
        C#m 
In that field of snow 
            
There's no way to know  


Break: 
Amaj7 E C#m  

 
Amaj7               E 
     He died of old age 
                     C#m 
In the prime of his youth 
                       
Cue the lights on the stage 
Amaj7                 E 
     What the hell happened? 
            C#m 
The credits roll 
          
Spoiled, Sebadoh 
               Amaj7 Am7 
Who takes that second? 
    Amaj7 Am7 
Or a minute 
   Amaj7 Am7 
To think 
        Amaj7    Am7 
To just forget it 
 

 
            Amaj7 
So when the time is right 
Amaj7 
You just have to take it with you 
E 
Jesus Christ, its like time is naked 
        C#m 
And you feel alright 
                            
I'm not feeling too good myself 
           Amaj7 
And so you stumble home 
Amaj7 
Or back in the basement 
E 
And the rocks are cold 
E 
But so is the pavement 
         C#m 
And its up to you 
                    
But its also up to you

Amaj7                     E 
     I watched the needle jump 
                     C#m 
The engine makes the evening flow 
        
As our morals slow 
Amaj7                  E 
     Absorbed into the sea 
                C#m 
And down on the floor 
                          
The wines of youth dont stain no more 
 

 
Amaj7 
     And even if I was solipsistic 
    
Or, even if I am solipsistic 
                         C#m 
Would it really make any difference? 
C#m 
Because as much as I tell myself it's real 
C#m 
It's just as real 
C#m 
As it really isn't

C#m                 
Fearless youth and parents truth 
   A             E 
My exhaust is my own colossus 
C#m 
How did we get to this place? 

How many hits can you take? 
    A 
And I see the beads of sweat in your hair 
                                  N.C. 
And I see that its always been a lake
