Verse:
C
This town will never change
G
People come and go, it's all the same
C
Speed the roads on our doubting days
G
To any place that's far away
C
I never learned anybody's name
G
We all vowed that we wouldn't stay
C
Kissing signs on the interstate
G
All we do for now is sit and wait
Pre-Chorus:
C G C G
Ah, In our idle town. Ah, in our idle town
Chorus:
Am G
Yeah, we invent our own little games -in our idle town-
Am G
When the lights out at the stadium, hey -in our idle town-
Am G
Making life a spinning arcade -in our idle town-
C G C
And curfew's at midnight, we watch the sunrise
G C
We watch the sunrise
G
We watch the sun
Verse:
C
Springtime when the air is thin
G
We're getting antsy and they're noticing
C
While everybody's off partying
G
We're watching stars over ice-cream
C
And now we're kicking up to seventh gear
G
And we're breathing in the atmosphere
C
And I don't even need a sip of beer
G
Yeah I can feel it all
Pre-Chorus:
C G C G
Ah, In our idle town. Ah, in our idle town
Chorus:
Am G
Yeah, we invent our own little games -in our idle town-
Am G
When the lights out at the stadium, hey -in our idle town-
Am G
Making life a spinning arcade -in our idle town-
C G C
And curfew's at midnight, we watch the sunrise
G C
We watch the sunrise
G
We watch the sun
Bridge:
C G
And they watched the sunrise
C G
Blinking out of red eyes, and sore minds
C G C
The airplanes keep flying by, and they cry
G
'Cause they've never even touched the sky
C G
No, they'll never even touch the sky
Chorus:
C G
Yeah we invent our own little games -in our idle town-
C G
And everybody's trying to escape -in our idle town-
C G
Killing time at the yellow café -in our idle town-
C G
And curfew's at midnight -in our idle town-
Outro:
C G
Yeah I think that we'll all be okay -in our idle town-
C G
The idle town will stay as it stays -in our idle town-
C G
And everyone I love's in this place -in our idle town-
C
So curfew's at midnight
G
We watch the sunrise
