Maisie Peters - The Band And I: chords

           D
We played Heads Up in a car in Seattle
Bm
God rock on the radio
                 A
You look like a superstar
And Dom got into Juilliard
                       G
And I'm really bad at Heads Up, what do you know?
            D
My drummer fell for a girl in a cookie shop
             Bm
He said he'd make a move and then he went with,
"Excuse me?"
                A
Came a boy and left a man
Gotta give it to the band
                G
Greatest one in Oregon (Oregon)

Bm                        G
And looking back, all I know is

Chorus:
         D
It was Friday nights, it was video gold
            A
Oh, it was shining lights, it was rock 'n' roll
            Bm
It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus
G
And it was making it, messin' it up
       D
It was endless roads in the same old boots
            A
Oh, it was letting go of everything but you
           Bm
It was the band and I on a twelve-bed bus
          G                                     D
If we're livin' the dream, I hope we never wake up

Snowstorm in the middle of Texas
Called my mother in a Denny's and lied
Told her I'd been eating then
Told her you were just a friend
Told her I was homesick
I hadn't thought of home twice

Drive and then we drive again to an ocean
And I think I knew it then for a moment

Chorus

                     A
I hope we never wake up
                     Bm
I hope we never wake up
                    G
I hope we never wake

D
Two nights in the El Rey went flying
     Bm
I'm twenty-one and I feel evergreen
                      A
The band go home, I stay to write
We drive around, I stay the night
                  G
Guys, I'm pretty sure it's the American dream

It was changing clocks, it was Tina stoned
Oh, it was midnight stops at border control
Yeah, it was power cuts, it was certain doom
It was living in the Little Rock laundry room
Oh, it was breaking down, it was falling in love
In a gas station by the pickup trucks
In Philadelphia, it was crystal clear
We are the best damn band that's ever
played right here

It was magic, babe, pure and strong
It was the last man standing for the Eagles song
It was a far-flung wish when we were young
Now we're living the dream and
I hope we never wake up
