Joel Plaskett - Absentminded melody

^GIt's dusk as all the shadows fall The sun is laid to ^Crest

At night the city ^Gcomes to life As the ^Dlight dies in the ^Cwest

^GHere we stand as some local band Sets circles 'round the ^Cclock

Smoke so thick you need a l^Gighthouse So l^Doud I can't hear myself ^Ctalk

^GSomeone whispered in my ear "It's not like it^C was before"

I don't know what ^Ghappened here I ^Dguess we just got ^Cbored

^GThe good old days Well I suppose, I'm glad they're behind us ^Dnow

The ^Gonly thing worse than ^Cgrowing up Is ^Gnever quite ^Dlearning ^Ghow

^GLate at night we ^Ctoss and we ^Gturn Lay awake 'til ^Ddawn

^GWe close our eyes as the ^Csun comes up we're ^Ggone
