[Verse 1]
G G Em Em
Well Diane and Christina scream and argue up the stairs
C C Am D
While Davey and his buddies just shoot craps
G G Em Em
Davey says "We oughta lock the door with them inside"
F F D D
"Come back in two days and collect the scraps."
Em D C D
And the sirens rolling past that house
Em D C D
And people roaming in and out
G Em D
I see now it was all about
C D
Just waking up to life
[Chorus]
G C Am
But your innocence can only once be broken
G D C D G
And then it's never gonna be that way again
G C Am
Once our sense of who we are is really opened
G D C D G
Yeah we're never gonna be that way again
[Break]
D C C G D Em C G D C C G G
[Verse 2]
G G
Charlie never liked me
Em Em
Because someone said we looked alike
C C Am D
Charlie never liked himself too much
G G
And Jane had clever ways to let me
Em Em
Know I'd gone too far
F F D D
She buried me while I was standing up
[Bridge]
Em D C D
And a thousand tales in two short years
Em D C D
A thousand jobs and no careers
G Em D
We just road while no one steered
C D
But little was enough
[Chorus]
G C Am
'Cause your innocence can only once be broken
G D C D G
And then it's never gonna be that way again
G C Am
Once our sense of who we are is really opened
G D C D G
Yeah we're never gonna be that way again
[Bridge]
E E Am Am
To the casual observer we were all full up with friends
D D G D
But friends don't seperate the way we did
Em Em
Now Davey's pissed off, Paul is penetration??
A A C C
Diane married money, Christina calls them for a laugh
D D
But these days they ain't funny
[Chorus]
G C Am
'Cause your innocence can only once be broken
G D C D G
And then it's never gonna be that way again
G C Am
Once our sense of who we are is really opened
G D C D G
Yeah we're never gonna be that way again
G D C D G
Yeah we're never gonna be that way again
