Prom Theme Fountains of Wayne
[B]Here we are at last. The [G#m7]moment soon will pass
We'll [C#m7]go our separate ways. We'll [Em]vanish in the haze
[B]We'll never be the same. We'll for[G#m7]get each other's names.
We'll grow [C#m7]old and lose our hair. It's [Em]all downhill from there.
[E]But tonight we'll [Em]reach for the [B]stars. We'll rent ex[Em]pensive [B]cars
And [F#]dream our [Cm7]dreams of a [F#]perfect [C#m7]night
And we'll [F#]sing our [E-5]prom [E]them[B]e
[E-5] [E] [Em] [B]
(The break is an instrumental with heavy strings that is basically a repeat of
the verse and chorus but goes off on a discordant tangent at one point, then
comes back to...)
[B]Here we are at last. We're [G#m7]running out of gas.
The [C#m7]air is getting thick. The [Em]girls are getting sick.
[B]We'll pass out on the beach, our [G#m7]keys just out of reach.
And [C#m7]soon we'll say goodbye, then we'll [Em]work until we die.
[E]But tonight we [Em]feel like we're [B]stars. We'll [Em]play our air gui[B]tars
'cause [F#]we're eigh[C#m7]teen. It's a [F#]perfect [C#m7]night
to s[F#]ing our [E-5]prom [E]them[B]e.
[E-5] [E] [Em] [B]
END
(I'm not sure if E-5 is the right name for that chord. It's an E with a regular
fifth and a flatted fifth, first four strings only 0-2-2-3)
