[Intro]
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah.
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah.
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah…
[Verse 1]
Left you, falling
on the floor
Headed for the door
Went straight
to Philidelphia
Oh no, what have
I begun?
Called my mother,
said I love her
Had another and another one
Questions, questions,
suddenly suggestions
Where was anyone
at the start of this thing?
Hold the cold up over
your shoulder
All I needs a place to grieve
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it’s for the best
you didn’t listen
It’s for the best
we get our distance
(oh oh woah oh)
It’s for the best
you didn’t listen
It’s for the best
we get our distance
[Chorus]
Oh lord, I feel alive
I've gone and saved my soul
If all that you read is
everything you believe
Then let go, then let go,
then let go
[Verse 2]
Now I’m over my head
Acting like I never
started over again
I am the city I’m from
Always wanting more
than just a word on my arm
Oh, I know, I can’t believe
That I'd let it get to me
Good to know I won’t become
Everything I’m afraid of
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Mama don’t cry
I was once your little baby boy
So full of love and light
By the time I turned 25
I was lost among the pavement
Lower than the basement
And I couldn’t stand and smile
I thought of taking my own life
But mama don’t cry
I found songs among the tragic
Hung my hat on sadness
Mom, I think they’re trying
to keep the grand
romantic in me
Now that we got bottom lines
But mom, I think
I’m ready to free this
grand romantic in me
La -Di - Da, La -Di - Da,
La -Di - Da
Look out, look out!
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah.
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah.
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah
Ah ha, ha-ah-ah…
[Chorus X2]
Ah Ha
