[E7] Cool kids are all here and no one is listening
[F7] To me or each other or electric motors humming
[G7] Stage is a little shaky I can't feel my right foot
[F#7] Fingers are a little achy from [F7] barre chords I wish I [E7] could
Chorus 1
[C7] Play my songs today
I have something to [A7] say
Even if they're not [D7] listening
[C7] Getting dark
I still feel the [A7] spark
Of my synapses [D7] missing
[E7] A standing gig anytime I want I can play here
[F7] Bringing my old rig leaving behind my old fear
[G7] That I'll forget half the words and muff half the chords
[F#7] Driving my EV spark while [F7] Andy's got his cold [E7] ford
Chorus 2
Thinking
[C7] Why do I even try
Man sometimes I just [A7] die
These kids would be [D7] amazed
[C7] 'Bout who I was in my day
Now I sing new songs and just [A7] play
Yeah now I've been [D7] replaced
[B7] Wear my sunglasses cause I can't stand bright lights
My synapses missing all intuitive insight
The future still passes by who I might
Have [A7] been
