Ahead by a Century

Verse 1:
D
First we’d climb a tree
D
and maybe then we’d talk
D
or sit silently
D
and listen to our thoughts
Cadd9
with illusions of someday
D
casting a golden light
C
no dress rehearsal,
D
this is our life

Pre-chorus:
D                                Cadd9
that’s where the hornet stung me
                         D
and I had a feverish dream
                Cadd9
with revenge and doubt
                       D
tonight, we smoke them out

Chorus:
A                         G                           A
You are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century, you are ahead
            G 
by a century

Verse 2:
D
Stare in the morning shroud
D
and then the day began
D
I tilted your cloud
D
you tilted my hand
Cadd9
rain falls in real time
D
and rain fell through the night
C                  D
no dress rehearsal, this is our life

Pre-chorus:
D                              Cadd9
That’s when the hornet stung me
                    D
and I had a serious dream
                Cadd9
with revenge and doubt
                        D
tonight, we smoked them out

Outro:
A                          G                           A
You are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century, you are ahead
             G                           A                           G
by a century,                             you are ahead by a century,
                           A                           G 
you are ahead by a century, you are ahead by a century                 
G                   
and disappointing you’s getting me down
