Counting Crows - August and Everything After 1)
FThey're wakin' up Maria 'cause everyBbody else has got some place to Fgo Fsus4, F She Fmakes a little motion with her Bhead, rolls over, and says she's gonna Fsleep for a couple minutes more
I said I'm Bsorry to Maria for all the cold-hearted things that I have doneF I said I'm Bsorry by now at least once to just about FeveryoneFsus4, F
She says I've forCgotten what I'm supposed to do Btoday And it slips my Cmind what I'm supposed to sayB We're getting Dmolder and older and older and always a little Cfurther out of the way
You look Finto her eyes and it's Bmore than your heart will FallowFsus4, F And CAugust and everything after Byou get a little less than you expecFted somehow
2) well I stumbled into Washington Square just as the sun began to rise And I walked across the lawn to the cathedral and laid down and the shadow of St. Mary's in the sky and I'm just one of these late model children waiting for the king But there ain't no sign of Elvis in San Francisco it's just me and I'm playin' this rock and roll thing She wants to be just like me And I want every damn thing I can see You know one day you're Daddy's little angel The next day you're everything he wanted you to be They dress you up in white satin and they give you your very own pair of wings In August and everything after I'm after everything I said yeah yeah yeah yeah - lalala 3) Well you got your reservations and you got your seven-million dollar home You got the number of some girl in New York City who's always wide awake so you never spend the night alone You got a nasty little habit of peekin' down the shirts of all the little girls as they pass you by And I wonder when it all catches up to you and they finally take you down– are you gonna cry? Well I already got my disease So take your fuckin' filthy hands off of me Yeah well I hope you weren't expecting to be crucified– The best that they can do is to hang you from the nearest tree It's midnight in San Francisco and I'm waiting here for Jesus on my knees And August and everything after I want somebody else to bleed for me I said yeah lalala lalala... nanana nanana nanana… 4) They came down from North Dakota with confidence in the military mind And now everyone I know is turning showgirl and dancing with their shirt off in some Las Vegas hotel line So I'm going' to New York City Cause I got a little sleevie here for me When I find myself alone, I know I'm never going home You make the changes, the changes that you need And I no longer know how to pray I live in dog town and it's a Dalmatian parade And I change my spots over and over but they never seem to fade away I am the last remaining Indian looking for the place where the buffalo roam In August and everything after man them buffalo ain't never comin' home In August and everything after man them buffalo ain't never comin' home Lalalala lalalala… I said oh yeah yeah yeah lalala Nanananananana…
