Tick Tick Boom – 30/90 chords by Misc Musicals

[Verse]
C               Fsus2
Stop the clock, take time out
C                 Fsus2
Time to regroup before you lose the bout
C                 Fsus2
Freeze the frame, back it up
C5                Fsus2
Time to refocus before they wrap it up
G                 G/F      G   
Years are getting shorter, lines 
                 G/F            G
on your face are getting longer
                 G/F            Em7  
Feel like you're treading water,   
                   E                F
but the rip tide's getting stronger
                             Dm7
Don't panic, don't jump ship
                           Bb/Eb
Can't fight it, like taxes
                         F/Bb         Gsus G C
At least it happens only once in your life
 
[Chorus]
                 Am7             
They're singing "Happy Birthday," 
Em               F                  C
you just want to lay down and cry
           Fm7            Dm7
Not just another birthday,   
            C/F G
it's thirty ninety
C                  Am7
Why can't you stay twenty-nine?
      Em                  F                 C
Hell, you still feel like you're twenty-two
             Am7              Dm
Turn thirty, nineteen ninety, bang!
                  F   G   C5
You're dead, what can you do?
         Fsus2 C5
What can you   do?
             Fsus2 C
What can you do?
 
[Verse]
                         F          C
Clear the runway, make another pass
                        F
Try one more approach before you're out of gas
G                   G/F     G          
Friends are getting fatter, hairs on 
              G/F              G
your head are getting thinner
            G/F           Em7
Feel like a cleanup batter   
               E               F
on a team that ain't a winner?
                                  Dm7
Don't freak out, don't strike out
                          Bb/Eb
Can't fight it, like city hall
                                
At least you're not alone, 
     F/Bb              Gsus G C
your friends are there too
 
[Chorus]
                 Am7
They're singing "Happy birthday"
Em                F              C
You just wish you could run away
           Am7              Dm7
Who cares about a birthday?
           C/F G   C
But thirty ninety, hey!
           Am7
Can you be optimistic?
Em               F           C
You're no longer the ingenue
             G/A          Am
Turn thirty, nineteen ninety
Dm
Boom!
              Fsus2
You're passe!
     G   C5
What can you do?
         Fsus2 C5
What can you   do?
             Fsus2 E D A G
What can you do?
 
[Bridge]
Dm            G             
Peter Pan and Tinker Bell, 
      C            F
which way to Never Never Land?
Bb             Eb            
Em'rald City's gone to hell, 
Ab               F        C/E         Dm
since the wizard blew off his command 
                  G              
On the street you hear the voices: 
C               F
 lost children, crocodiles
Bb             Eb                                
You're not into  making choices, 

wicked witches, 
Cm7
poppy fields, or men behind the curtain
Ab
Tiger lilies, ruby slippers
Fm7               G          G/A     D
Clock is ticking, that's for certain
 
[Chorus]
                 Bm7
They're singing "Happy Birthday"
F#m       G                D
I wish it all were a dream
              Bm7                Em
It feels much more like doomsday
            D/G A
F*ck thirty ninety!
D                 Bm7            
Seems like I'm in for a twister, 
F#m           G                D
I don't see a rainbow, do you?
            Bm7
Turn thirty in the nineties
Em
Into my hands now the ball is passed
  Bm
I want the spoils but not too fast
    Em                                 Bm
The world is calling, it's now at Neverland
                                 
Why can't I stay a child forever? 
Em
And thirty ninety
              Bm/F#                            
Thirty ninety,     thirty ninety, thirty ninety, 
G                                    G/A
 thirty ninety, thirty thirty ninety!
           D5 Gsus2 D5
What can I do?
           Gsus2 D2
What can I do?
