Tonart: F# minor
Verse 1
E
We're going to take a chance.
G#m
Gosh, what a surprise, dude.
E
The other day, I was driving along
G#m
E
in my wife's car
G#m
with the kid in the back and
the kid's seat.
And sometimes when you're driving along,
it's just all sunny and great,
and sometimes you have bad thoughts.
E
An d I had a bad thought.
G#m
I thought, what if I see a wreck?
What if there's people out there?
What am I going to say to them?
And that made me start thinking,
how the hell do I explain the
whole thing to them?
Because lots of this
is very hard to make sense of,
E
G#m
E
you know.
B

G#m
E
G#m
E
How am I going to explain it to him?
G#m
What am I going to say?
E
But it's something that grim
F#
How the hell do you tell
E
F#
That comes an end?
E
F#
How you gonna handle it
E
F#
And still be that friend?
G#m
How do you explain
G#m
To all of the innocents
G#m
These and other questions
G#m
And I'm not satisfied
E
With the answers I know
F#
What are you go ing to say
E
F#
E
F#
To those eyes, I can't even get close
E
F#
G#m
To those lies, easier to tell
E
If you just say oh well
G#m
I'll explain it when he's older
G#m
E
Than I want to be
C#m
B
A
I am uncomfortable lying to a child
B
C#m
Feels like building a trap
B
A
for something wild
B
C#m
B
A
Feels like building a house on the sand
B
C#m
And expecting the ocean
B
A
to let it stand
G#m
Somehow I must come
G#m
See, I'm just not satisfied
E
with all the simplified guff
F#
That they shovel at the kids by the handful
E
F#
The candy they buy at a stand for
G#m
The flags by the side of the road
E
G#m
Not good enough to handle that load of crap like they do
E

Verse 2
E
where I can tell them the truth
G#m
About everything from Jesus
F#
E
F#
They lie in the house and the senate, too
E
F#
Only get close to the truth
when it suits them, too
G#m
And the very next day,
E
G#m
E
they're back to lying that way
G#m
Of course it doesn't seem
G#m
But I look at some of the faces,
F#
And I wonder which thing made them
E
F#
I'd lose the dream
E
F#
It's mine, it's alive
E
F#
Give me what you would see
G#m
And I would just like to be able
G#m
Without the light in those eyes
G#m
E
I wanna dream for him
G#m
I want a dream, dream, dream,
dream, dream, dream for him
