CHORDS: Maisie Peters – The Band And I Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are The Band And I chords by Maisie Peters on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Verse 1]
          D
We played Heads Up in
a car in Seattle
    Bm
God rock on the radio
                A
You look like a superstar

And Dom got into Juilliard
                      G
And I'm really bad at Heads Up,
 what do you know?
           D
My drummer fell for a
 girl in a cookie shop
                   Bm
He said he'd make a move
and then he went with,
 "Excuse me?"
               A
Came a boy and left a man

Gotta give it to the band
                G
Greatest one in Oregon
(Oregon)

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
And looking back,
        G
all I know is

[Chorus]
       D
It was Friday nights,
it was video gold
           A
Oh, it was shining lights,
it was rock 'n' roll
           Bm
It was the band and
 I on a twelve-bed bus
           G
And it was making it,
 messin' it up
       D
It was endless roads
 in the same old boots
           A
Oh, it was letting go
of everything but you
           Bm
It was the band and
I on a twelve-bed bus
         G
If we're livin' the dream,
                      D
 I hope we never wake up

[Verse 2]
D
Snowstorm in the middle
of Texas
          Bm
Called my mother in a
Denny's and lied
                   A
Told her I've been needing them

Told her you were
just a friend
                G
Told her I was homesick
I hadn't thought of
 home twice

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
Driving and we drive
             G
again to an ocean
A
And I think I knew
it then for a moment

[Chorus]
       D
It was Friday nights,
 it was video gold
           A
Oh, it was shining lights,
 it was rock 'n' roll
           Bm
It was the band and
I on a twelve-bed bus
           G
And it was making it,
 messin' it up
       D
It was endless roads
 in the same old boots
           A
Oh, it was letting
go of everything but you
           Bm
It was the band and
 I on a twelve-bed bus
         G
If we're livin' the dream,
                      D
 I hope we never wake up
                     A
I hope we never wake up
                     Bm
I hope we never wake up
                    G
I hope we never wake

[Bridge]
D
Two nights in the El
Rey went flying
    Bm
I'm twenty-one and
 I feel evergreen
The band go home,
    A
 I stay to write
We drive around,
I stay the night
                 G
Guys, I'm pretty sure
it's the American dream

[Verse 3]
       D
It was changing clocks,
it was Tina stoned
           A
Oh, it was midnight
 stops at border control
             Bm
Yeah, it was powercuts,
 it was certain doom
       G
It was living in the
Little Rock laundry room
           D
Oh, it was breaking down,
 it was falling in love
     A
In a gas station
by the pick-up trucks
       Bm
In Philadelphia,
 it was crystal clear
           G
We are the best
damn band that ever
played right here

[Outro]
       D
It was magic band,
pure and strong
           A
It was the last man standing
 for the Eagles song
         Bm
It was a far flung wish
when we were young
          G
Now we're living the dream
                          D
and I hope we never wake up
