  			(intro 2x) D F#m 

(verse) 
D              F#m               D              F#m 
I buy the nicest things from a supermarket store 
D              F#m               D              F#m 
Vitamin land and marzipan and I know just what they're all for 
D              F#m               D                          G 
I've organized my useless life in a way I've never done before 
D               F#m 
Even visit the dentist now 
 
E                            G 
But I've got no time      for silly chitter chatter 
D               F#m 
I'm on my way 
                   E                           G                     D 
'Cause while my blood's still warm and my   mind doesn't matter 
                F#m 
I'm hoping to stay 
              C                 G 
Because I've got a thing about seeing my grandson grow 
             (strum a bit lightly) 
D              F#m               D              F#m 
old.    A ho ho 

(verse 2) 
D              F#m               D              F#m 
I just can't wait to see that city on the moon 
D              F#m               D              F#m 
With air conditioned gardens that'll   play your favourite tune 
D              F#m               D                          G 
I'll see my feet  u pon that street if it's the last thing that I do   oo 
D               F#m 
Even sweep the  roads to be there 

(Chorus) 

(solo) D Em G D F#m E 
       D Em G D F#m D 
       D A (2x) 

D              F#m               D                          G 
I'll see my feet  u pon that street if it's the last thing that I do   oo 
D               F#m 
Even sweep the  roads to be there 

(Chorus) 
(solo)
