Hey Ho - Hello Saferide
D
I knew it first thing I met you
F#m
There's something special in us
G
Our lives will be different
D A
We will stay young forever
D
We'll know when we get there
F#m
And we looked for entrance doors
G
But somehow we never
D A
And there was no
D
And when the streets wake up at nights, we'll go there
A G
Singing "Hey, Ho"
D A
Hey ho, to the plans that slip away before we have them
G
Catching soup with forks without lamplight
D
And everyone else seemed to end up places
A G
While we just sang "Hey, ho"
D A
Hey ho, to the sailors that never passes by
G
To take us along to Brazilian sea ports
D F#m G
D
But there is something about him
F#m
Like he has never seen the world
G
Something so pure and decent
D A
I have to destroy it
D
Or tap it on bottles
F#m
And drink it all night
G
And put a ring on it
D A
To keep it forever
D
And in a sudden flash of light I'll stand there
A G
Singing "Hey, ho"
D A
Hey ho, to the hope I carry with me in my hands
G D
Fragile as newly-born birds or as egg shell
G Bm A
I have something, I know I do
G A
I just need someone else to see it too
G
To pinpoint it and let me know
Bm A
What to do
G Bm A
You, my friend, you are no help
G A
You have just as little clue as I ever had
G
We ask each other for directions
Bm A
It's as entertaining as it is sad
D
No, I didn't ask much of him
F#m
Only that he'd be all I need
G
That he'd fill the void in me
D A
Make me stay young forever
D
And now we roam the streets like tourists
F#m
There is panic in our eyes
G
We pick up every paving stone
D A
Look underneath them for anything
G Bm A
Your head is nowhere safe tonight
G A
I have no idea what to say tonight
G
We'll take off our boots and run out
Bm A
Curse and scream at the moon, tonight
D
In a dream I'm on my death bed
A G
Being asked what it's all about
D
And in my dream I know it:
A G
Roaming the streets with your best friends
Singing "Hey, ho"
But when I woke up
D
I forgot it
