[Verse 1]
     D                         G
In a dream drinking strawberry lemonade
        A            F#
Feeding quarters to a pinball game
    Bm                       D
And getting paid to look the other way
G                         A
My foam finger slapped me right in the face


[Verse 2]
D                       G
I banged my head on the plexiglass
        A            F#
I can't remember where my house is at
         Bm                    D
And this Moms Against Drunk Driving ad
      G                        A
Keeps playing on a loop in the back of the cab


[Verse 3]
D                  G
Oh, what a pitiful hill to climb
A                F#
Every night of my evil fucking life
Bm         D
208 to the end of the line
G                  A
I swear I'm really done this time


[Verse 4]
D                     G
I said goodbye to my oldest friend
A                           F#
Could barely string together sentences then
Bm                           D
A hundred dollar bill folded into his hand
G                         A
I'll see you on the other side of the fence


[Verse 5]
D                    G
I need headphones to fall asleep
A                       F#
I close my eyes and I pretend to be
   Bm                D
In my little room on Rostery
G                         A
Step-dad reading Treasure Island to me


[Verse 6]
D                     G
Pain is a way you can move through time
A                        F#
And visit people that are gone in your mind
Bm                    D
And smooth over every wrinkle you find
G                               A
The truth can't hurt you if you know it's a lie


[Verse 7]
D                             G
I've had this thing that Joan said to me
A             F#
Circling in my head the last few weeks
Bm                 D
"We were raised on dreams that keep
G                   A
Turning our fingers green"


[Verse 8]
D                    G
A baby boomer's last acid trip
A               F#
And pushing up a casket lid
         Bm                     D
Just some jacaranda petals in a basket
G             A
Wrapped up in plastic


[Verse 9]
D               G
Everything is an accident
A             F#
God's truth is elastic
         Bm                   D
We sent a man to the Moon and back again
G               A
Strapped into a trash can

[Verse 10]
          Bm    G      E      G
There's a consolation prize
       Bm     G     E      G
In the corner of my mind
          Bm    G      E      G
There's a consolation prize
       Bm     G     E      G
In the corner of my mind
          Bm    G      E      G
There's a consolation prize
       Bm     G     E      G
In the corner of my mind

       Bm     G       E
I will always be your friend
