"It Keeps You Up"
[F] [Am] [Dm] [C]
You are the first in your me parade.
You're getting older, they stay the same.
Your funny look and your jealous eyes.
They can't relate to a thing you say.
[Bb]When all in all is all we are
[G]May not get you very far.
[F]It keeps you up at night, Am
How did they by their way into you?
[F] [Dm] [Am]
[F]We hea[Am]rd you f[Dm]irst on[C] the radio
You complicate the material.
How can it be that we'd get there first?
It was a lie, it was a lie just to say the words.
bass:
[Bb]When your grass is painted green,
[G]You'll get the taste of what we mean.

[F] [Dm] [Am] [Am]
[F]It keeps you up at night,
[Dm]They sleep inside your living r[Am]oom.
[F]You give just another diamond at the... '? (cant figure out what he's singing)
[Dm]''''''''' when it's ov[Am]er you.
[Bb]We still remember things you said,
[G]When your face was turning red.
[Bb] [G]
[F] [Am] [Dm] [C]
[Bb]And all and all is all we are
[G]it may not get you very far
[Bb] [G]
[F] [Dm] [Am]
