The summer that I broke my arm

  B      B/A      B/C#   F#m

I waited for your letter

I have no feeling for you now

Now that I know you better   [Intro]

I wish that I could have loved you then

Before our age was through

And before a world war does with us

Whatever it will do [Intro]

Dreamed I drove home to Houston

On a highway that was underground

There was no light that we could see

As we listened to  the sound of the engine failing [Intro]

  E                   A      E

I feel like I’ve been living in

               A           E

A city with no children in it

                  A    E

A garden left for ruin by

  B     B/A     B/C#      F#m     E

A millionaire inside of a private prison  [Intro]

You never trust a millionaire

Quoting the sermon on the mount

I used to think I was not like them

But I’m beginning to have my doubts, my doubts about it  [Intro]

When you’re hiding underground

The rain can’t get you wet

But do you think your righteousness

Could pay the interest on your debt, I have my doubts about it  [Intro]

[Chorus]
