Intro

Bm G A F# G F#


Verse

Bm                  G               A
Ive got myself in a masochistic hold
     F#    G   F#      Bm
Why don’t you let go
Bm                      G                A
Shake it off a just to redirect my flow
     F#  G   F#
Come on lets go
Bm                        G
Sit up straight Im on a double date
          A                          F#
Ive got to find my way into the light 
    G     F#
heavy middle weight
Bm                     G
We don’t stop a rock around the clock
       A                           F#     G      F#
a motor mouthing off in front of every other road block


Pre-Chorus

G                      A7   G      F#       F#7
Come a gain and tell me what youre going thru
G                   A7  G       F#       F#7
like a girl who only knew her child was due


Chorus
Bm            D
Memories of everything
    A             Em
of lemon trees on mercury and
Bm               D
come to me with remedies
      A             F#7
from five or six of seven seas and
Bm           D               A               Em
you always took me with a smile when I was down
Bm          D              A     F#7
memories of everything the blew thru



Repeat first verse for following verses


Interlude

Bm
Sit up straight
          G
I’m on a double date
          A                          F#
Ive got to find my way into the light
   G      F#
heavy middle weight
Bm
We don’t stop
        G
a rock around the clock
     A                            F#
motor mouthing off in front of every other road block


Chorus
