Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x4
The  crowd began to wave
 From the freeway  overpass
We  joined the parade
 right  behind the marching  band
And  You said
"Wave  back, cause these  are the best days  of your life."
And  I said
"I  know, I can't feel  anything"
 And up,  up on the Ferris  wheel
I  can see L.A.  and all the freeways
I  can see your  face
so  close to me
And  I can dream my  dreams
 And light the night
like  a drive in movie  screen
 (ya know....)
 x2
 On a hot  summer day
 We laughed  in the Polaroid
Counted  all the ways,
 To slow  down our time  machine
And  in my mind  all  I could
 think was that  love is war
And  you know  I'd surrender anything
 And up,  up on the Ferris  wheel
I  can see L.A.  and all the freeways
I  can see your  face
so  close to me
And  I can dream my  dreams
 And light the night
like  a drive in movie  screen
Oh  no, I don't want to be  another
 scar on a bar stool
 in East Los Angeles.
 x3
