GRemember when the days were long
and rollCed beneath a deep blue sky
GDidn't have a care in the world
With mommyC and daddy standing by D
But haGppily ever after fails
and we've been poisonedC by these fairy tales
The laGwyers dwell on small details
Since daddEmy had tCo fly D
Ah but I kEm7now a placBm7e where we canAm7 go
Em7That's still uCmaj7ntouched by maDn
Em7We'll sit and wBm7atch the clouAm7ds go by
and the talEm7l grass wavCmaj7e in the wind D
you can lay Gyour head baDck on the grouCnd
And letEm7 your haBm7ir fallAm7 all around me
GOffer uDp your besCt defense
But thEm7is is the eBm7nd, Am7 Cmaj7 This is Dthe end
Of the InnoGcence
Repeat Intro
Oh beautiful for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairytales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go
And wash away the sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds go by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
Let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end, This is the end
Of the Innocence
Who knows how long this will last
Or how we've come so far so fast
But somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the Innocence
Repeat Intro to end.
