Verse:
[Dm]I've had enou[C]gh of this small t[F]own bulls**t
[Dm]I'm not stay[C]in' in scho[F]ol
[Dm]I'm makin' good[C] dough workin' [F]with my brother
[Bb]Cleanin' out pools
I'm going out to California
And man it won't be long
As soon as I get my license
Color me gone
Oh knock it off Johnny
Man, your livin' in your head
You ain't even got a car
And those chicks don't believe a word ya said
Bridge:
[Gm]But you're doin' all the talkin'
[Bb]So I just keep quiet
[Gm]And this'll probably go no where
[Bb]But I can't blame ya for tryin'
Chorus:
[C]It's just us kids hang[Bb]in' round the park at n[F]ight
[C]Hangin' round 'neath t[Bb]he vapor light[F]
[C]We got no drugs and we[Bb] got no guns[F]
[C]Not even botherin' any[Bb]one[F]

Verse:
I don't have to wear a necktie
I don't have to punch a clock
I started up a dot com company
And man it rocks
Won't you come with me down to Mexico
In the winter with some friends
My divorce will be final
Along about then
[Gm]Meanwhile I got a gram and a real good ri[Bb]de
[Gm]And don't you know I hurt way down inside[Bb]
Chorus:
Just us kids in the parking lot
Out here givin' it all we got
We don't want to get old and die
And there ain't nothing we wouldn't try
[Gm]Ya know we could really have it [Bb]all
[Gm]Our kid's gonna graduate next fa[Bb]ll
[Gm]I could take retirement in 10 ye[Bb]ars
[Gm]It's a damn short movie[Bb]
[Gm]How'd we ever get here[Bb]
Chorus:
Just us kids hangin' out today
Watchin' our long hair turnin' gray
Not so skinny maybe not so free
Not so many as we used to be
Repeat Last Chorus 2x:
