             Am     C      G                   Am    C    G
To be young,                      to be young
             Am               C                    G
Were just leaves, leaves, floating on down the stream
             Am                C             G
My job, my house, my car, my whole social scene
    Dm             G           C        Am
So high are the stakes, every move we make
          F           G             C
Sends us down, down, down in that stream


CHORUS:
              F            Am
Here in the only life I know
               G
Those summer days rush out like warm air from my lungs
                 F             Am
Thats just the way the story goes
           G
All Ive learned I still wish I didnt know
           G                                  Am    C     G    (x2)
All I didnt know, oh, when we were young

VERSE:
             Am          C                    G
When I was young I told myself Id keep my friends
           Am             C                   G
They were good and I was true, didnt need to end
                Dm           G
Oh how theyve risen they fallen
          C           Am
Like the sun circles round
             F           G           Am
Guess Ive done just as well as anyone
            F       G            C
Hard to accept it, Im just anyone
                  F             Am
But here in this only life I know
              G
Those summer days rush out like water from the lawn
               F               Am
Its just the way the story goes
            G
Stand in line now and talk about the day when we were young

My conscious couldve sunbathed
Every day in my bright blue mind
Now its crowded with guilt and purpose and

I just want it all aligned

And Ill be damned, Ill be damned


CHORUS: 
              F           Am
Here in the only life I know
             G
Not taking notice I dont know which way to go
               F             Am
Its just the way the story goes
           G
Ill be damned if Im to live it out alone
              F    G     Am
Here in the only life I know
             G
With any waste of time it hits so close to home
               F       G      Am
Its just the way the story goes
           G
Ill be damned if Im to live it out alone
I wont live it out alone
Wont live it out alone

VERSE:
            Am                C                      G
Were just leaves, leaves, floating on down the stream
            Am                 C              G
My job my house my clothes my whole social scene
    Dm              G
So high are the stakes
     Dm        G      C    Am
So high are the stakes, every move we make
          F           G             Am
Sends us down, down, down in that stream
         Dm       G         C          Am
And one day, one day, one bright clear day
     F                G          Am
I think we all might just disappear
          F              G           C         Am
Sink on down in that river cold and clear, my dear
               F       G         Am
On down like leaves in an icy stream
              F              G                 C
On down like leaves to the bottom of an icy stream
