[Verse 1]
How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
[Pre-Chorus]
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
[Chorus]
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova, a champagne supernova in the sky
[Verse 2]
Wake up the dawn and ask her why
A dreamer dreams she never dies
Wipe that tear away now from your eye
[Pre-Chorus]
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
[Chorus]
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova, a champagne supernova
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause people believe
That they're gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinnin' 'round, we don't know why
Why? Why? Why? Why?
[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova in the sky
Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide
In a champagne supernova, a champagne supernova
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause people believe
That they're gonna get away for the summer
But you and I, we live and die
The world's still spinnin' 'round, we don't know why
Why? Why? Why? Why?
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were getting high?
We were gettin' high
We were gettin' high
We were getting high
We were gettin' high
We were gettin' high
We were getting high
We were getting high
We were gettin' high
We were gettin' high
