[A] [F#m] [E] [D] [A]

[A]After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
[F#m]Talk becomes slow but there's one thing I'll never [E]forget,
Hey, you gotta pay your dues be[D]fore you pay the [A]rent

[A]Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic,
there's [F#m]ways of livin', it's the way I'm livin', right or [E]wrong,
it's all that I can do, and I [D]wouldn't wanna let you [A]be.

CHORUS 2x:

I wanna [Amaj7]range life,
If I could [F#m]settle down,
If I could [Bm]settle down,
Then I would [F#m]settle down.

[E]

[A] [F#m] [E] [D] [A]

[A]Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat,
[F#m]Pass me your gloves, there's crime and it's never [E]complete,
until you snort it up or shoot it down,
you're [D]never gonna feel [A]free

[A]Out on my skateboard, the night is just hummin',
the [F#m]gumsmacks are the pulse I'll follow, and if my walkman [E]
fades,
I got absolutely no one, [D]no one but my self to [A]blame.

[E]Don't worry, [D]we’re in no [A]hurry
[E7]School's out, [D]what did you ex[A]pect

CHORUS 2x:

I wanna [Amaj7]range life,
If I could [F#m]settle down,
If I could [Bm]settle down,
Then I would [F#m]settle down.

[E]

[A] [F#m] [E] [D] [A]

[A]Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins,
[F#m]nature kids, I, they don't have no function,
[E]I don't understand what they mean,
and I [D]could really give a [A]fuck.

[A]Stone Temple Pilots, the elegant bachelors,
they're [F#m]foxy to me are they foxy to you,
I will [E]agree, it doesn't, absolutely nothin',
[D]nothin' more than [A]me.

[Here it kind of descends into madness having something to do with A]

Dreamin' and dream dream dream dream…
