[Intro]
D Bm G A
[Verse 1]
G D A
Daddy smokin' them cheap cigars
G D A
Ridin' 'round in high mileage cars
G D A
We were backyard super stars
G Em
'Til Momma said come on in, supper's on the table
G D A
A two bath and three bedrooms
G D A
Yard sale sign with a blue balloon
G D A
Cap'n Crunch on a plastic spoon
G Em
Has anybody seen them jumper cables
[Chorus]
D
White paint peelin' off the shutters
Bm
A little bread to go with your butter
G
Just one trip every summer
A
To Grandma's house or Mickey Mouse if you're lucky
D
Right out of a Rockwell picture
Bm
Pickin' on my baby sister
G
Callin' her names, Daddy callin' Mama honey
A D Bm G A
In the tree, in the yard, growin' middle class money
[Verse 2]
G D A
Educated at the public school
G D A
And down at that community pool
G D A
Cuttin' grass for a buck or two
G Em
'Til you had enough to buy yourself your newest favorite record
[Chorus]
D
White paint peelin' off the shutters
Bm
A little bread to go with your butter
G
Just one trip every summer
A
To Grandma's house or Mickey Mouse if you're lucky
D
Right out of a Rockwell picture
Bm
Pickin' on my baby sister
G
Callin' her names, Daddy callin' Mama honey
A D Bm G A D Bm G A
In the tree, in the yard, growin' middle class money
[Bridge]
D Bm
Birthday parties at the skatin' rink
G A
Grab a slice of pizza and a fountain drink
D Bm
Guess a million bucks woulda sure been nice
A
But I'da missed out on a middle class life
[Chorus]
D
White paint peelin' off the shutters
Bm
A little bread to go with your butter
G
Just one trip every summer
A
To Grandma's house or Mickey Mouse if you're lucky
D
Right out of a Rockwell picture
Bm
Pickin' on my baby sister
G
Callin' her names, Daddy callin' Mama honey
A D Bm
In the tree, in the yard, growin' middle class money
G
Oh, we were so happy
A D Bm
It ain't even funny
G A D
Livin' on that middle class money
