My absolute favorite song on the album, it's quite simply played yet incredibly
fun to play along. It's just a C and F the entire time (sounds best to play bar chords)

YCou know i do my best thinking when I'm flying down the bridge,
HFumming to myself and kicking up my kicks.
JCiggling all around half-afraid for my life, I hope I don't crash like that night last summer,
BFack when the bridge was just a wooden path, Bouncing around like he said it was 1956

Chorus:
I thought I'd learn fFrom my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
I thought you'd give me thCe right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.

TFhe planks rattle around like an old-timey movie,
In tube-top and shorts that Vice called "pull-me-down"
sChe's got kind of a native vibe before that was so cool
She's got kind of a native vibe before I even knew who was who F
ACnd he's ignoring me like it's 2001
WFhy keep time traveling if it doesn't get better on the second time around
WChy keep time traveling if it doesn't get better on the second time around
Chorus:
I thought I'd learn fFrom my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
I thought you'd give me thCe right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.

IF wore the same outfit on the day the Hasid
Followed me in his car along Park, not Avenue,
BCut the one in Brooklyn, on an early Sunday morning,
I'm carrying an umbrella and talking on the phone
MFy mom said run, and I ran,
I crashed down Baker, cut my head and my knees
TChe ambulance was called by a guy his friend called Guru
TFhey were visiting from California, and I swear they,
I swear they, I swear they,
I swear they saved my life C
Chorus: (x2)
I thought i'd learn fFrom my mistakes, I thought he'd learn from my mistakes,
I thought you'd give me thCe right advice, I thought he let me in for one last time.
Outro: F C (repeat until fade)
