the summer that i broke my arm

i waited for your letter

now that i know you better

E A E A A E a x2

i wish that i could have loved you then
B B/A B/C# F#m
before our age was through

B B/A B/C# F#m
whatever it will do

E A E
dreamed i drove home to houston
B B/A B/C# F#m
on a highway that was underground

there was no light that we could see
B B/A B/C# F#m E
as we listened to the sound of the engine failing

chorus :
E A E
i feel like i’ve been living in

a city with no children in it

a garden left for ruin by
B B/A B/C# F#m E
a millionaire inside of a private prison

E A E A A E a x2

E A E
you never trust a millionaire
B B/A B/C# F#m
quoting the sermon on the mount
E A E
i used to think i was not like them
B B/A B/C# F#m E
but i’m beginning to have my doubts , my doubts about it

E A E A A E A

E A E
when you’re hiding underground
B B/A B/C# F#m
the rain can’t get you wet
E A E
but do you think your righteousness
B B/A B/C# F#m E
could pay the interest on your debt , i have my doubts about it

E A E A A E A

chorus

E A E
i feel like i’ve been living in
A E
a city with no children in it

a garden left for ruin by
B B/A B/C# F#m E
and by as i hide inside of my private prison
