C                                F         C
ask about my problems, I won't tell you no lies
                                   G
everyday I'm getting older and the more I compromise

 C                                           F          C
I've got debt and doubt and worries piled up outside my door 
                                               G        C
makes me wanna ride my old bicycle down to the grocery store

and buy me some baseball cards and stick 'em in my spokes
                                 G       
and ride around the old gym and sneak a couple of smokes    
 C                                         F        C    
then cruise around the car wash, till the sun goes down
                                  G        C                                  
that used to be enough to make my world go round

I recall when I was younger, how I couldn't wait
                        G          
until I got older, now it's getting too late
     C                         F            C                       
to go out and do all of those things that I did
                                 G       C

F                                    C                      
and I'd go rolling down a hill, on a yellow slip and slide
                                  G                   
my friends would count to 20, and I'd run and hide 
 C                                         F           C
and we'd toilet paper houses, play a little king of the mound
                                  G        C                                  
that used to be enough to make my world go round

now you can leave a message at the sound of the tone
                              G                
you can e mail or fax me, or try my mobile phone
C                                    F          C
but I"m turning 'em all off, I can't take it no more
                                                  G        C
I think I'm gonna ride my old bicycle down to the grocery store
