Grassy Knoll

Verse 1

Boone's

Stolen bottles

Apple wine and sugar

Sticky fingers on the glass

Tastes like cheap regret

John

Acid

Dropping tabs

Watching the pavement melt

Wheels

Rolling

Grinding metal on the curb

Cigarette ash on the flannel shirt

Chorus

Grassy knoll

We had it all

Down at the grassy knoll

Stumbling through the heat

Palm trees bending low

Palm trees bending low

We had it all

Verse 2

Minnie

Laughing loud

Parking lot party

Red circles in her eyes

Passing smoke

Marlboro

Light up

Breath of the desert

Burning lungs for a dollar

Dusty boots

Scuffing up the white lines

Nothing to find

Nowhere to go

Chorus

Grassy knoll

We had it all

Down at the grassy knoll

Stumbling through the heat

Palm trees bending low

Palm trees bending low

We had it all

Bridge

Forgotten days

Forgotten nights

Forgotten faces

Sunlight

Sliding off the mountain

Hard to breathe

Hard to leave

Hard to stay

Just a memory in the dry wind

Gone

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Grassy knoll

We had it all

Down at the grassy knoll

Stumbling through the heat

Palm trees bending low

Palm trees bending low

We had it all

Outro

Skating away

Skating away

John is skating away

Just smoke

Just ash

Just us

Palm Springs burn

Burn

Burn
