xG C2 Em7
When we were younger we used to sit on my porch
C2 D G
And talk smack about girls and professional sports
G C2 Em7 C2 D G
There’s a lot of things I wanted to say but never got a chance to find a way
G C2
Take a good look at all of our high schools
Em7 C2
This is the first reason that I wanna write you
D G
It must be tough when society is messed up
C2 D G
Gotta save money, please don't take it out on us
Pre-chorus:
G D C2 G D C2
Do they even know? Do they even know?
Chorus:
G C2
If I was brave I’d write a letter to the president
Em7
And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament
C2
But for now I won’t say nothing
G C2
From all the kids who would stand in my residence
Em7 C2
Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence but for now I won’t say nothing
Now that we’re older a brand new story unfolds
About God and the laws that we’ve always been told
There’s a lot of things I wanted to say but never got a chance to find a way
