Riff 1 Asus2 F#m
[Verse]
E C#m
I used to walk down to the docks in spring
G#m A
Drink tallboys on the rocks by the water
E C#m
Under the watchful eye of day-glow cranes
G#m A
Spread like floods from condo to condo
F#m B E Riff 2 Riff 1
Wave goodnight to me
[Chorus]
A
When it all fell down
E Riff 1
I should have been prepared
A
Spent the last five years sayin'
E C#m
Come on, come on, come on, get outta here
A
I wish it didn't hurt
E Riff 1
I wish I didn't care
A
Spent the last five years
E C#m
Sayin' come on, come on, come on get outta here
[Verse]
E C#m
Ignorance is bliss until the day
G#m A
The things you ignored all come into focus
E C#m
And those conveniences and cavities
G#m A
They hurt like hell 'cause you never noticed
F#m B E
Wave goodnight to me
[Chorus]
A
When it all fell down
E
I should have been prepared
A
Spent the last five years yellin'
E C#m
Come on, come on, come on get outta here
A
I wish it didn't hurt
E
I wish I didn't care
A F#m
They spent the last five years
E C#m
Yellin' come on, come on, come on get outta here
G#m A
Come on, come on get outta here
E C#m
Come on, come on get outta here
G#m A
Come on, come on get outta here
[Bridge]

To the sleepless city too tired to fight

They're pushing you out in the name of progress
Am
Selling your memories to the tourists

As he starts singing the "come on" bit, a second guitar plays this:
Each one is played 8 times, bending up gradually throughout all 8 strums - hard
to describe but relatively
easy if you listen to the song

I used to walk down to the docks in spring
And drink Tallboys on the rocks by the water
Under the watchful eye of Day-Glo cranes
That spread like floods from corner to corner
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
Yeah, ignorance is bliss until the day
The things you ignored all come into focus
And those conveniences and cavities
That can't get filled 'cause you didn't notice
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
Wave goodnight to the sleepless city too tired to fight
They're pushing you out in the name of progress
Selling your memories to the tourists
Wave goodnight to me
When it all fell down
I should've been prepared
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
I wish it didn't hurt
I wish I didn't care
They've spent the last five years yelling "come on"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
"Come on, come on get out of here"
Wave goodnight to me
