We go to sleep to shake appeal
Never wake up on our own

 A                     Fmaj7
We go out in stormy weather
 A                    Fmaj7
We rarely practice discern
 A                         Fmaj7
We make love to some weird sin
 A                  Fmaj7
We seek out the taciturn

We found a new kind of dance in a magazine
  A                                  Fmaj7
Tried it out it's like nothing you ever seen
  A                                    Fmaj7
You sweet talk like a cop and you know it
  A
You bought a new bag of pot, said let's make a new start

    Am                    Am/G                 F

    Am                Am/G                 F
That's the way we get by,   The Way we get by
    Am                    Am/G                 F
And that's the way we get by,   the way we get by
    Am                    Am/G                 F

Verse 3: (again with Intro Riff)
We get high in back seats of cars
We put faith in our concerns
Fall in love to down on the street
We believe in the sum of ourselves
