Idle Town

[First Part]
               C
This town will never change
                        G
People come and go, it's all the 
same
                       C
Speed the roads on our doubting days
                    G
To any place that's far away

                C
I never learned anybody's name
                  G
We all vowed that we wouldn't stay
                     C
Kissing signs on the interstate
                     G
All we do for now is sit and wait

[Pre-Chorus]

C               G      C        
Ah, In our idle town ah, in our 
        G
idle town

[Chorus]

      Am                       G
Yeah, we invent our own little games
 (in our idle town)
      Am                       G
When the lights out at the stadium, 
hey (in our idle town)
      Am                       G
Making life a spinning arcade (in 
our idle town)
       C                  G       
And curfew's at midnight, we watch
            C
 the sunrise
G                   C
We watch the sunrise
G
We watch the sun

[Second Part]

                    C
Springtime when the air is thin
                               G
We're getting antsy and they're 
noticing
                      C
While everybody's off partying
                          G
We're watching stars over ice-cream

                            C
And now we're kicking up to seventh 
gear
And we're breathing in the 
G
atmosphere
                        C
And I don't even need a sip of beer
                G
Yeah I can feel it all

[Pre-Chorus]

C               G      C        
Ah, In our idle town ah, in our 
        G
idle town

[Chorus]

      Am                       G
Yeah, we invent our own little games
 (in our idle town)
      Am                       G
When the lights out at the stadium, 
hey (in our idle town)
      Am                       G
Making life a spinning arcade (in 
our idle town)
       C                  G       
And curfew's at midnight, we watch
            C
 the sunrise
G                   C
We watch the sunrise
G
We watch the sun

[Bridge]

C                    G
  And they watched the sunrise
                    C         G
Blinking out of red eyes, and sore 
minds
C                    G           
  The airplanes keep flying by, 
         C
and they cry
                          G
'Cause they've never even touched 
the sky
C                       G
 No, they'll never even touch the 
sky

[Chorus]

     C                        G
Yeah we invent our own little games 
(in our idle town)
     C                    G
And everybody's trying to escape (in
 our idle town)
C                   G
Killing time at the yellow café (in 
our idle town)
C                         G
 And curfew's at midnight (in our 
idle town)

    C                         G
Yeah I think that we'll all be okay 
(in our idle town)
    C                        G
The idle town will stay as it stays 
(in our idle town)
   C                         G
And everyone I love's in this place 
(in our idle town)
 C
So curfew's at midnight
G
 We watch the sunrise
