Bb                           F
We had no idea what we were in for
Bb                              F
3 boys trying to grow up strong
 Bb                        F      
But we all found great comfort in 
      Gm
music
And the journey that carried us 
       C
along

Bb                             
We bought an old van, borrowed a 
    F
drum set
  Bb                               
Got a $40 dollar bass from the farm
          F
 next door
  Bb                      F  
Met a French Canadian in Rhode 
         Gm
Island
Who told us to keep our sticks down,
                         C
 keep our heads up, and get a lil 
something for

               Bb              
And we were trying to cross the 
   F
world
            C                 Dm
We were trying to cross the world
           Bb                   F 
We were trying to cross the world 
                  C
for what we had found

 Dropped the tranny in Effingham,

Once teenage friends
                            F      
Now struggling with the place where
                 Gm
 the sidewalk ends

So we said goodbye in Boston
           C
With that dirty water rolling on

               Bb              
And we were trying to cross the 
   F
world
            C                 Dm

But then you all came out in New 
York
        Bb                      F
For a country that was so far away
       Dm                        
I'€™ll tell you, I'€™ll tell you, 
                Am      Bb

Who is smiling to know that his

message did not fade away
