Verse 1
B7 B7 E E
We took the freeway out of town
B7 B7 E E
We found a place to settle down
B7 B7 G# G# C#m C#m E7 E7
We bought a driveway and a swingset and a dog
Amaj7 Amaj7
You got your very own bathroom
Am7 Am7
I got my very own workshop in the basement
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
We sit around staring at the wall-to-wall
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
Take field trips to our favorite mall
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A F#m F#m B7 B7
Waiting for the day when all the kids grow up and leave us here

Chorus
E E
If you need me
B7 B7
I'll be downstairs
E E
With the shop vac
A A E E
You can call but I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7sus4 B7sus4
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
B7 B7
(for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on)
E E
But you'll be OK
B7 B7
Cause you'll be upstairs
E E
With the TV
A A E E
You can cry and I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7 B7 E E A A E E
Because it's loud with the shop vac on

Verse 2
B7 B7 E E
We hung a flag above the door
B7 B7 E E
Checked out the gourmet grocery store
B7 B7 G# G# C#m C#m E7 E7
I bought a mower I can ride around the yard
Amaj7 Amaj7
But we haven't got real friends
Am7 Am7
And now even the fake ones have stopped calling
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
Maybe if you forget to hide the keys
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
I'll take a ride to Applebee's
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A F#m F#m B7 B7
I'll come home drunk on daiquiris and throw up on the neighbor's lawn

Chorus
E E
If you need me
B7 B7
I'll be downstairs
E E
With the shop vac
A A E E
You can call but I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7sus B7sus
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
B7 B7
(for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on)
E E
But you'll be OK
B7 B7
Cause you'll be upstairs
E E
With the TV
A A E E
You can cry and I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7 B7 E E A A E E
Because it's loud with the shop vac on

Bridge
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 G G Cmaj7 Cmaj7
I like the Starbucks here that's better than the other one
G G
Cause the other one's not as good
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C#m7b5 C#m7b5 D D
They really need to put a light there cause it's hard to turn
B7 B7
It's hard to make a left turn

[Vincent's Guitar Solo]***


Verse 3
B7 B7 E E
And when it's time to go to bed
B7 B7 E E
I'm still awake inside my head
B7 B7 G# G# C#m C#m E7 E7
I'm floating up above the house and looking down
Amaj7 Amaj7
I guess I gotta go back there
Am7 Am7
I guess there never was any other answer
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
And as the freeway hums the cars go by
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A
The headlights roll across the sky
E E G# G# C#m C#m A A F#m F#m B7 B7
Many miles away but I can see them speeding through the dark


Chorus
E E
If you need me
B7 B7
I'll be downstairs
E E
With the shop vac
A A E E
You can call but I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7sus B7sus
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
B7 B7
(for heaven's sake it's really loud with the shop vac on)
E E
But you'll be OK
B7 B7
Cause you'll be upstairs
E E
With the TV
A A E E
You can cry and I probably won't hear you
F#m F#m B7 B7 E E A A E E
Because it's loud with the shop vac on
