[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
