She's wearing (B flat major) some kind of
A, a bright (A minor) green miniskirt, and it
Turns out it's (D major) a

(B major) The rains would come and the
(B flat major) Hills would just kind of melt down
(A minor) In to the city lights, and, (D major) well, you
Know, (A minor) we'd smoke weed and we'd
Go up in the hills,
and (D major) we'd listen
(A minor) To progressive rock music, and just kind
Of (D major) trip out and (A minor) well, (B major) we would
Dream, you know, we would dream
(B flat major) And we would talk about
what we wanted
(A minor) To do, and we would (D major) talk about
Girls (A minor) and music and, you know, hillel
Wanted (D major) to be a rock (A minor) star
And I didn't even know

I was like, (D major) "Whatever you want to
(A minor) Do, man, (B major) I'm coming with you
(B flat major) I'm right with you my friend"

Verse 5
(A minor) Why in the world would you want it to be?
(F major) Why would you want to take (C major) it so
So (E major) literally?
(A minor) All these things that come
down (E minor) from the sky
Rain (F major) ing upon your head
(C major) Make you stop and (E major) wonder why,
ah! (G sharpdim)
(A minor) Can 't they just spell it out,
make it clear
Make it easy (F major) to read
For (C major) the simple man like me? (E major)
I don't think so (Bdim)
(A minor) I reach out to my fam (E major) ily and I say (E minor)
(F major) "It's not about religion
and the (C major) God (E major) sitting
In a chair in the sky
With a punishing hand, (A minor) no (E minor)
It's about (F major) heaven in your (C major) heart"
(E major) Now when can we start?
(A minor) I wanna choose love (E minor) instead (F major) of fear
Won't you (C major) come right now, over (E major) here
And be a part of (A minor) my, ah (E minor)
Let (F major) me make it easier this (C major) time, (E major) I love you
(A minor)
