Intro: Main Riff (x 4)
{Bass}
I remember redwood trees, bumper cars and wolverines
The ocean’s Trident submarines
Lemons, limes and tangerines
I remember this
I remember traffic jams
Motor boys and girls with tans
Nearly was and almost rans
I remember this
{Main Riff x 4}
{Riff #2}
History is made
{Riff #2} {Riff #2}
History is made to seem unfair
I recall that you were there
{Riff #2}
Golden smile and shining hair
{Riff #2}
I recall it wasn’t fair
{Riff #2}
Recollect it wasn’t fair
{Riff #2}
Remembering it wasn’t fair outside
{Main Riff}
The willow at high tide
The lowest ebb and highest tide
The simple wave I must confide
I guess we took a slow ride
{Riff #3}
I guess it’s just a gesture
{Bass}
I remember this defense
Progress fails pacific sense
All those sweet conspiracies
I remember all these things
{Riff #2}
I remember traffic jams

Motor boys and girls with tans

{Main Riff x 4}
{Main Riff}
The willow at high tide
The lowest ebb and highest tide
The simple wave I must confide
I guess we took a slow ride
{Riff #3}
I guess it’s just a gesture
At the end of the continent
At the edge of the continent
