Intro D G x 2

        D                               G
Oh, the last ten years, it's been quite trip
     D                        G                       D 
Over thirty-six-hundred spins around without a cosmic slip 
    D                       G
But within the realm of our atmosphere
       D                       G                            D

We're 'bout as out of whack as we've ever been in a million years
A                             D 
We watched the Y2K scare in a panic
A                                         D 
An' we watched as time proved Nostrodamus wrong 
A                                         D
An' we watched as Mother Nature shook the planet 
Em                        D
An' cellular replaced the telephone 
D                      G               A
We lost Charlie Brown, Ray Charles an' Johnny Cash 
             D
We even lost Superman, mhm. 

Well, the last ten years, look at the hills we've climbed 
The best golfer's black, the best rapper's white an' it's about damn time 
But we best beware, there's a brand new fight, you see 
An' I hate to say we might be our own worst enemy 
We watched Oklahoma sifting through the damage 
An' we watched a US President get caught 
We watched shareholders watch their savings vanish 
We all cried when we watched those towers fall 
We lost Minnie Pearl, Ron Reagan and Sam A I am 
We even lost Superman, mhm. 



A                      D
Expensive gas an' free downloads 
A                     D
The dot-com boom, an' reality shows 
Em                                    G
What's gonna happen next is anybody's guess 
A                          D
Satellite radio and hybrid cars 
A                                 D
Hand-held computers an' a trip to Mars 
Em                               G
It's all become a part of who we are 
       D
In the last ten years. 

In the last ten years 
We lost George Harrison, John Paul and June Carter-Cash 
Hell, we even lost Superman 
Gonna miss you. Chris...
