D                 D 
First we'd climb a tree 
D 
And maybe then we'd talk 
D            D 
Or sit silently 
D 
And listen to our thoughts 
C                     D 
With illusions of someday 
D                   D 
Casting a golden light 
C                
No dress rehearsal 
D 
This is our life 

( D  Dsus  D6  D  E ) 
( D  Dsus  D6  D  E ) 

D 
And that's when the hornet stung me 
C                   D    
And i had a feverish dream 
D               C 
With revenge and doubt 
C                      D 
Tonight we smoke them out 

A 
You are ahead by a century 
G6 
You are ahead by a century 
A 
You are ahead by a century 
G6

D 
Stare in the morning shroud 
D 
And then the day began 
D 
I tlted your cloud 
D 
You tilted my hand 
C 
Rain falls in real time 
D 
And rain fell through the night 
C 
No dress rehearsal 
D 
This is our life 

( D  Dsus  D6  D  E )

And that's when the hornet stung me 
C                   D    
And i had a feverish dream 
D               C 
With revenge and doubt 
C                D 
Tonight we smoke them out 

A 
You are ahead by a century

You are ahead by a century

You are ahead by a century 
G6

You are ahead by a century 
A 
You are ahead by a century

D 
And disappointing you's gettin' me down
