[Intro]
D

then
D G D G A


[Verse 1]
D
  After a genuine act of defiance
C                   G
  You're 29 and you lost your license
D
  That's fine you need to ride your
         C
bike more About a month and
       G
you're joining the peace corp
D
  And I'm okay with this downhill
        C              G
strategy No brakes but many
         D
anonymity Right now you're singing
               C                 G
the fixed gear blues But look me up
                                 A    G
when you're walking in worn down shoes


[Chorus 1]
D
I see what you're
doing right there
           G
But you're dreaming
if you think that I
          D
care They picked on you
because you're so small
              G
Stand on your money and
               A
you're 20 feet tall
    D
The grass is always
greener somewhere
        G
And the pavement is
always cleaner somewhere
        D
But I'm breathing easy
under blue skies
            G
I've got a smile 20 feet
A                       D  G D G A
wide I will lend you my ear

D G D G A


[Verse 2]
D
  Right now you're singing
               C                 G
the fixed gear blues But look me up
                                 A    G
when you're walking in worn down shoes


[Chorus 2/Outro]

wide I will lend you my ear
                   D  G A
I will lend you my ear
                   D
I will lend you my ear
