Painted yellow lines with
            Am         Em
Our shadows far behind us

Broke into that summer school

Just an adolescent heart

The young one wheels
             Em
And begs the pavement
            C                    G
For brother speed to make arrangements
             A              D
With the spirits of the night

       C       G
I have no expectation
           Am          Em
Just to be here in the present
      C                G
And behold you for a second
  Am                D
Before it all goes away

Broke into that summer school
            Am                     D
And fooled around on the infirmary cot
              Em
And we can be like all those fairies
                  C
Making their rain angels in the eddies
           Em
And I have no expectation
        Am         D
Just an adolescent heart
