End Of The Innocence


End of the Innocence- Don Henley This is just an expansion on other tabs/chords I've seen online. I HATE when people don't post all the lyrics, or when they do post all the lyrics but only fill out half the chords. So here you go: G Remember when the days were long C and rolled beneath a deep blue sky G Didn't have a care in the world C D With mommy and daddy standing by G But happily ever after fails C and we've been poisoned by these fairy tales G The lawyers dwell on small details Em C D Since daddy had to fly Em7 Bm7 Am7 Ah but I know a place where we can go Em7 Cmaj7 D That's still untouched by man Em7 Bm7 Am7 We'll sit and watch the clouds go by Em7 Cmaj7 D and the tall grass wave in the wind G D C you can lay your head back on the ground Em7 Bm7 Am7 And let your hair fall all around me G D C Offer up your best defense Em7 Bm7 Am7 Cmaj7 D But this is the end, This is the end G Of the Innocence Repeat Intro G Oh beautiful for spacious skies C But now those skies are threatening G They're beating plowshares into swords C D For this tired old man that we elected king G Armchair warriors often fail C And we've been poisoned by these fairytales G The lawyers clean up all details Em C D Since daddy had to lie Em7 Bm7 Am7 But I know a place where we can go Em7 Cmaj7 D And wash away the sin Em7 Bm7 Am7 We'll sit and watch the clouds go by Em7 Cmaj7 D And the tall grass wave in the wind G D C You can lay your head back on the ground Em7 Bm7 Am7 Let your hair fall all around me G D C Offer up your best defense Em7 Bm7 Am7 Cmaj7 D But this is the end, This is the end G Of the Innocence G Who knows how long this will last C Or how we've come so far so fast G But somewhere back there in the dust C D That same small town in each of us G I need to remember this C So baby give me just one kiss G And let me take a long last look C D Before we say goodbye G D C Just lay your head back on the ground Em7 Bm7 Am7 And let your hair fall all around me G D C Offer up your best defense Em7 Bm7 Am7 Cmaj7 D But this is the end, This is the end G of the Innocence Repeat intro.
