Intro: - x2, ---- x2


Verse 1:
         
This pressure is too much to take
Every bend reaches a break
    
but that's a sore subject
    
its time to get your head checked

  you can't keep dwelling on every
             
moment that slipped by because
           
with every sunset comes a sunrise
                     
we don't know or care where we go
     
just turn up that radio

  we'll sing along to all 
our favorite songs
         
and hope these interstates 
        (hold)
will go on and on and on


Chorus:
                  
  So long sincerity escape your mind
              
its your save haven from reality

  but It's okay it didn't
                
mean much anyway to me


Verse 2:
            
     It seems like just yesterday
               
when we would stay up late 
       
out on your front lawn
         
talking about where we've been 
            
and all the places we're going
         
we would lose track of time watching

cars pass us by and I would 
               
sneak back home before the sunrise
         
and how everyday would seem so 
long and every night would 
   (hold)
go on and on and on


(Repeat Chorus twice)


Bridge:

  Still bleeding from 
these back stabbed scars

young boys dying in 
   
an old mans war

  and your sympathy 
cant take that away


Interlude: E--G#m-A- x2

and every night would 
go on and on and on


Outro:
             
  so long sincerity
  
escape from reality
(Repeat x4)


E- x4, E--G#m-A-E(hold)
