Tonart: F# minor
Verse 1
Gb
We're going to take a chance.
Bbm
Gosh, what a surprise, dude.
Gb
The other day, I was driving along
Bbm
Gb
in my wife's car
Bbm
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.
Gb
An d I had a bad thought.
Bbm
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,
Gb
Bbm
Gb
you know.

How am I going to explain it to him?
Bbm
What am I going to say?
Gb
But it's something that grim
Ab
How the hell do you tell
Gb
Ab
That comes an end?
Gb
Ab
How you gonna handle it
Gb
Ab
And still be that friend?
Bbm
How do you explain
Bbm
To all of the innocents
Gb
Brought to this place
Bbm
These and other questions
Bbm
And I'm not satisfied
Gb
With the answers I know
Ab
What are you go ing to say
Gb
Ab
Gb
Ab
To those eyes, I can't even get close
Gb
Ab
Bbm
To those lies, easier to tell
Gb
If you just say oh well
Bbm
I'll explain it when he's older
Gb
Somehow that's colder
Bbm
Gb
Than I want to be
Ebm
Db
B
I am uncomfortable lying to a child
Db
Ebm
Feels like building a trap
Db
B
for something wild
Db
Ebm

B
Feels like building a house on the sand
Db
Ebm
And expecting the ocean
Db
B
to let it stand
Bbm
Somehow I must come
Gb
up with better stuff
Bbm
See, I'm just not satisfied
Gb
with all the simplified guff
Ab
That they shovel at the kids by the handful
Gb
Ab
The candy they buy at a stand for
Bbm
The flags by the side of the road
Gb
Bbm
Not good enough to handle that load of crap like they do

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