There's a [E]girl with a [B]crown and a [E]scepter [A]
who's on [F#m]W-[A]L-S-[B]D [B7]
and she [E]says that the [B]scene isn't [E]what it's [A]been
and she's [F#m]thinking of [A]going [B]home [B7]

That it's [A]old and it's [B]totally [A]over [B]now
and it's [E]old and it's [F#]over, it's [G#]over [A]now
and it's [A]over it's [B]over it's [A]over [B]now
I can [A]see [B]my-[A]self

At the [A]end [B]of the [E]tour
when the [A]road [B]disap-[E]pears
if there's [A]any [B]more [E]people [A]around
when the [F#m]tour runs a-[B]ground
and if [G#]you're still a-[C#m]round
then we'll [A]meet at the [B]end of the [E]tour

The [A]engagements are [B]booked throught the [G#m]end of the [C#m]world
so we'll [F#m]meet at the [B]end of the [E]tour

[E]Never a-[B]part since the [E]day we [A]met
out on [F#m]Interstate [A]91 [B] [B7]
I was [E]bent metal [B]you were a [E]flaming [A]wreck
when we [F#m]kissed at the [A]over-[B]pass [B7]

I was [A]sailing a-[B]long with the [A]people [B]driving
them-[E]selves to dis-[F#]traction in-[G#]side me [A]then came a
[A]knock on the [B]door which was [A]odd and the [B]picture
ab-[A]rupt-[B]ly [A]changed

At the [A]end [B]of the [E]tour
when the [A]road [B]disap-[E]pears
if there's [A]any [B]more [E]people [A]around
when the [F#m]tour runs a-[B]ground
and if [G#]you're still a-[C#m]round
then we'll [A]meet at the [B]end of the [E]tour [F#m]

The [A]engagements are [B]booked throught the [G#m]end of the [C#m]world
so we'll [F#m]meet at the [B]end of the [E]tour [B][E]

[A]This was the [B]vehicle [A]these were the [B]people
you [E]opened the [F#]door and ex-[G#]pelled all the [A]people
[A]This was the [B]vehicle [A]these were the [B]people
you [E]opened the [F#]door and ex-[G#]pelled all the [A]people
[A]This was the [B]vehicle [A]these were the [B]people
you [A]let [B]them [A]go

then we'll [A]meet at the [B]end of the [E]tour [F#m]

The [A]engagements are [B]booked throught the [G#m]end of the [C#m]world
