A
Oh well the world never seemed bigger
D
Than the summer of '98
A
Living out in the suburbs
D
Planning my escape
A
I grew my hair to my shoulders
D
Formed a band with a couple of friends
A
And we called ourselves The Devils Playhouse
D
Influences like Bruce and the band
D A
And we'd sing and play
F#m C#m D
Simple three chord rock and roll
D A
And miles away
F#m C#m D
The other kids would just grow old
D A E
But we're making our own way out
D A E
Yeah we're making our own way out
A
Well we'd practice every week in my bedroom
D
While my parents were working in town
A
And one morning in our school assembly
D
Played a cover of "Don't Let Me Down"
A
The performance was nervous and awkward
D
But the passion was real and profound
A
And the kids in the audience laughing
D
While the band just looked at the ground
D A
But the victory
F#m C#m D
For the kids who believe in rock and roll
D A
I know for me
F#m C#m D
That performance lives, it never grows old
D A E
But we're making our own way out
D A E
Yeah we're making our own way out
A
Well I'd give it all back just to do it again
D
Yeah I'd turn back time, be with my friends
A
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
D
Turn back time, be with my friends
A
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
D
Turn back time and be with my friends
A
Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again
D E
Turn back time, be with my friends
A
Tonight
