Ode to Kevin Arnold
Ludo
Intro: C G F
C G F
I'm watching Kevin Arnold's Wonder Years
C G F C
Tearfully nostalgic for them days back in '69
C G Am F C
When the world was all just me and Paul playing football in the street
C G F
And Winnie Cooper was my love
C G F
I'm watching Jerry Springer make me sick
C G F
As America is throwing chairs again and I'm sitting in mine
C G Am
It was you and me versus crappy T.V.
F C
Apathetic together and glued to the screen
C G F Am
Just wasting each other's time, alone with you
G F Am C G F
I feel my world is starving, there's a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul
Am G F
Oooo, you know it's not The Matrix
Am C G C
That's a movie and this is life we're wasting here
C Am G F
Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine
C Am G F
Fifteen years old, oh god I ached for you
C Am G F
And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair
C Am G
All that honey-colored air
F G F C G F
Okay, let's not be weird (play C G F), not be weird
C G F
I'm watching Kevin Arnold's Wonder Years
C G F
Squandering my wonder years away as the credits roll by
C G Am
This isn't my life, that wasn't my day
F C
Nor was Daniel Stern dictating what I should say
C G F Am
I've been waiting for my line, God I feel so far away
G F Am C G F
I feel my world is starving, there's a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul
Am G F
Oooo, you know it's not The Matrix
Am C G C
That's a movie and this is life we're wasting here
C Am G F
Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine
C Am G F
Fifteen years old, oh god I ached for you
C Am G F
And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair
C Am G
All that honey-colored air
F G F
Okay, I swear it's not too late to jump out of planes
F G
And go soaring against the sky
F G Am
I don't know why it's cool to be anti-everything
G F
When everything has left us here
F G Am G F
Where everyday is so unclean, a Jell-O mold of mud and beer
F G Am G F
I want to take you way back where the sun was honey in the air
F G Am G F
Let's hurry up and leave today before we both just slip away
F G
It'll be okay
