D G D
You're a star, he says, you've bottled your grace
G D
It's a laugh to watch you try to keep pace
G D G
With the steps we made together one night with beer
D A G D
And you called me? Johnny Sunrise
D G D
Johnny Sunrise walks away from me?

Takes his time and he takes me too seriously

Locks his thoughts away in a box he built

While I was gone? Johnny Sunrise
CHORUS
Bm F#m G D
But remember the bite of those November nights when we rode out
Em D Asus4?A
To fight for the light of our lives to be turned on?
Bm F#m
Sweat and perfume and new bread as the moon faded
G D C (hold?) D (hold?)
Stumbling home spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a hurry
C (hold?) D (hold?)
But then we weren't in a hurry?
V2
D G D
Our faces are mirrors lines and scars that we've earned
G D
All the classes we missed all the lessons we learned
G D
All the roads that we took that took us apart
G D A G D
Now you're sitting there saying, "Let's go back to the start."
D G D
And he says, "Lose that luggage let it all go??
G D
Job you got job you lost what it cost all the things you now know
G D
All the girls you once had and the man that you are
G D
Let's climb off this world again
A G D
And climb into my car
A G D
Let's climb into my car
A G D (keep strumming?D?)
Drive away in my car
