Kick, you know you're still a kid
And your diets too full of additives.
Passed out on the couch with ashes in your mouth
Dreaming that you're hopping the fence.
This world must have it out for you
From the shores of Montauk up to Malibu.
The trappings of a name that you never could escape,
These people want to live in the past.
Some golden age that they never had.
I thought we lost that Camelot
I thought we lost that Camelot
Some children story we forgot,
Grew old so long ago.
Kick its hard to make a friend
In a world that's this cruel and partisan.
But you should go in style to Stockholm for a while,
Live outside oblivions lense.
Someday you'll have a fine divorce,
and a cemetery plot in Hyannisport.
Next time you close your eyes on that helicopter ride,
I hope you see it isn't your fault.
I hope you know it isn't your fault.
I thought we shot that Camelot
I thought they shot that Camelot
Whoever shot this movie stop
B wrote; said the show must go. - This line is probably the most wrong
FILL: A A?(finger on B-string up to the 3rd fret)
Lying in the office on an old chaise-lounge
Listening to the doctor drone.
No therapeutic feeling once the shock wears's off,
Answer every question 'no'.
Hiding in the hammock with the shades pulled down
Wondering if the story's broke.
Tragedy is profit once the word gets out,
Tabloids at the country store.
Searching on the tables once the bar's closed down,
said somebody stole your phone.
Now there's no-one to talk to but these trust-fund drunks,
You should have brought a chaperone.
Well Kick, I'd love to help you but I just don't count,
Friendship makes you paranoid.
I don't believe in curses, but I just might now.
I never really had a choice.
Just like all your broken toys.
REPEAT FILL
Well Kick, you know this life is rich.
But pleasure's not the same as happiness.
But if you don't collide with the traffic in your mind,
I think you'll find your way out of this.
I hope you find your way out of this.

Ki[D]ck, you know you're s[E7]till a k[A]id
And your di[D]ets too f[E7]ull of add[A]itives.
Pa[D]ssed out on the c[E7]ouch with as[A]hes in your m[F#]outh
Dre[Bm7]aming that you're hopping the f[E7]ence.
This wo[D]rld must have it [E7]out for y[A]ou
From the s[D]hores of Mon[E7]tauk up to Ma[A]libu.
The tr[D]appings of a n[E7]ame that you ne[A]ver could es[F#]cape,
These pe[Bm7]ople want to live in the p[E7]ast.
Some go[Bm7]lden age that they never h[E7]ad.
[Bm]I thought we lost that Camelot
[E7]I thought we lost that Camelot
[A7]Some children story we forgot,
[F]Grew old so l[Bm]ong a[E7]go.
Ki[D]ck its hard to m[E7]ake a fr[A]iend
In a wo[D]rld that's this cr[E7]uel and pa[A]rtisan.
But y[D]ou should go in s[E7]tyle to Stock[A]holm for a wh[F#]ile,
Li[Bm7]ve outside oblivions l[E7]ense.
Som[D]eday you'll have a fi[E7]ne divo[A]rce,
and a c[D]emetery p[E7]lot in Hy[A]annisport.
Next t[D]ime you close your e[E7]yes on that heli[A]copter r[F#]ide,
I ho[Bm7]pe you see it isn't your fa[E7]ult.
I ho[Bm7]pe you know it isn't your f[E7]ault.
[Bm]I thought we shot that Camelot
[E7]I thought they shot that Camelot
[A7]Whoever shot this movie stop
[F]B wrote; said the[Bm] show must [E7]go. - This line is probably the most wrong
FILL: A A?(finger on B-string up to the 3rd fret)
L[A]ying in the office on an old chaise-lounge
L[Bm]istening to the doctor drone.
N[D]o therapeutic feeling once the sh[Dm]ock wears's off,
A[A7]nswer every question [E7]'no'.
H[A]iding in the hammock with the shades pulled down
W[Bm]ondering if the story's broke.
Tr[D]agedy is profit once the [Dm]word gets out,
Ta[A7]bloids at the country s[E7]tore.
S[A]earching on the tables once the bar's closed down,
s[Bm]aid somebody stole your phone.
N[D]ow there's no-one to talk to but these t[Dm]rust-fund drunks,
Y[A7]ou should have brought a ch[E7]aperone.
W[A]ell Kick, I'd love to help you but I just don't count,
F[Bm]riendship makes you paranoid.
I[D] don't believe in curses, but I j[Dm]ust might now.
I[A7] never really had a c[E7]hoice.
Just like a[F]ll your broken [Dm]toys.
REPEAT FILL
Well [D]Kick, you know this l[E7]ife is r[A]ich.
But ple[D]asure's not the s[E7]ame as ha[A]ppiness.
But i[D]f you don't co[E7]llide with the tr[A]affic in your m[F#]ind,
I th[Bm7]ink you'll find your way out of [E7]this.
I ho[Bm7]pe you find your way out of t[E7]his.
REPEAT FILL
