	G
	Remember when the days were long

	C
and roll	ed beneath a deep blue sky

	G
	Didn't have a care in the world

	C	D
With mommy	and daddy standing by

	G
But ha	ppily ever after fails

	C
and we've been poisoned	by these fairy tales

	G
The la	wyers dwell on small details

	Em	C	D
Since dadd	y had t	o fly

	Em7	Bm7	Am7
Ah but I k	now a plac	e where we can	go

	Em7	Cmaj7	D
	That's still u	ntouched by ma	n

	Em7	Bm7	Am7
	We'll sit and w	atch the clou	ds go by

	Em7	Cmaj7	D
and the tal	l grass wav	e in the wind

	G	D	C
you can lay	your head ba	ck on the grou	nd

	Em7	Bm7	Am7
And let	your ha	ir fall	all around me

	G	D	C
	Offer u	p your bes	t defense

	Em7	Bm7	Am7	Cmaj7	D
But th	is is the e	nd,		This is	the end

	G
Of the Inno	cence

Repeat Intro

Oh beautiful for spacious skies

But now those skies are threatening

They're beating plowshares into swords

For this tired old man that we elected king

Armchair warriors often fail

And we've been poisoned by these fairytales

The lawyers clean up all details

Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go

And wash away the sin

We'll sit and watch the clouds go by

And the tall grass wave in the wind

You can lay your head back on the ground

Let your hair fall all around me

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end, This is the end

Of the Innocence

Who knows how long this will last

Or how we've come so far so fast

But somewhere back there in the dust

That same small town in each of us

I need to remember this

So baby give me just one kiss

And let me take a long last look

Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground

And let your hair fall all around me

Offer up your best defense

But this is the end

This is the end of the Innocence

Repeat Intro to end.
