The crowd began to wave
Am
Dm
From the freeway overpass
C
E
We joined the parade
Am
Dm
right behind the marching band
C
And You said
E
Am
Dm
“Wave back, cause these are the best days of your life.”
C
And I said
E
Am
Dm
“I know, I can’t feel anything”
G
Am
And up, up on the Ferris wheel
C
G
Am
I can see L.A. and all the freeways
C
G
I can see your face
Am
so close to me
C
G
And I can dream my dreams
Am
C
like a drive in movie screen

On a hot summer day
Am
Dm
We laughed in the Polaroid
C
E
Counted all the ways,
Am
Dm
To slow down our time machine
C
E
Am
And in my mind all I could
Dm
think was that love is war
C
E
Am
Dm
And you know I’d surrender anything
G
Am
And up, up on the Ferris wheel
C
G

I can see L.A. and all the freeways
C

I can see your face
Am
so close to me
C

And I can dream my dreams

Oh no, I don’t want to be another
