We'll smoke like a couple in the 1960's

Lit up like a pair of Woodstock hippies
        G#m                                     E
Lookin' down on a town where it don't seem wrong

To be a bonfire blaze where it don't belong

Meet me on the fire escape
                E
Meet me on the fire escape
           B
When the building's burning
                F#
Baby, we're to blame

Mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm

Downtown bar band's bouncing off the brick walls
 B                                             F#
Half pint lovers rollin' out with their last calls
     G#m                           E
The street lights down on Lafayette
 B                                    F#
Ain't seen nothin' like you and me yet
