[Verse 1]
F                                          C
We came out of the cinema
G                                 C
We were rubbing our eyes
F                                 C                                 G                 C
Our mouths were dry from the sugar and the popcorn
F                                 C
And we felt a little guilty
G                 C                 F                 C                 G
About spending that whole sunny day inside

F                                                 C
The movie we were watching
G                                 C
About Bonnie and Clyde
F                                                 C
They were driving down a backroad
G                                                 C
They thought they were home free
F                                                 C
The police knew they were coming
G
They were hiding in the trees
F                                 C
And they shot them down
G                                                 C
One hundred and thirty rounds
F                 C                 G
They shot them down

[Chorus]
F                 C                 Am
So we might as well say
G                                 F
What’s on our minds
C                                                 Am
‘Cause there’s no way to know
G                                 F
When it’s your time to go
G
When it’s your time to go

[Verse 2]
F                 C                                 G                                 C
Later we were walking on the streets of Monterey
F                                 C
The trees beside the water
G                 C                 F                 C
Reminded you of childhood holidays
G                                 C
Hey babe, I know the way
F                                 C
To a little stretch of beach
G
Where we could lose ourselves

[Pre-Chorus]
F                                 C
Don’t matter where you’ve been
G                 C                 F                 C                 G
You jump into the water and you come out clean
F                                 C
Don’t matter where you’ve been
G                 C                 F                 C                 G
You jump into this water and you come out clean

[Chorus]
F                 C                 Am
So we might as well say
G                 F
What’s on our minds
C                                 Am
‘Cause there’s no way to know
G                                 F
When it’s your time to go
G                 F        C      G   F     C
When it’s your ti—–ime to go
G
There’s no way to know
