Intro: First two bars of RF 1

Verse (Rhythm Fig 1):
Cut a tape of my favorite songs
Said what I can't face to face
I hoped that you would share all my thoughts
We are young and unimpressed,
with all you'd recognize.

Chorus (Rhythm Fig 2):
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind

Verse (RF 1):
In my car we are superstars
Run you lipstick down your chin
While up ahead we saw such a crash
Right there a song became a soundtrack
for this space in time.

Chorus (RF 2):
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind

Solo: RF 1 as if it was the second time through

Verse (RF 1):
Wonder is often lost
Jaded at such a cost
Time undermines you when you close your eyes.
We pass right by you.
