Some say that we're reckless
Am9 Abm7(no5)
They say we're much too young
+5/d -5/ -5add
Tell us to stop be fore we've be gun
We've got to hold out till grad u a tion
Am7 Em7 Ebmaj7 D11 Db+5/eb D11 B7+9(no5)
Try to hang on Max ii-i-i-i-i-i-i-i'i-i-ne
While the world is sleeping
We meet at Lincoln Mall
-5-5/ -5add
Talk about life the meaning of it all
Try to make sense of the subur ban sprawl
Try to hang on Maxi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-Ohhhhhh
Mexico City is like another world
Nice this year they say
ad-5/
You'll be my seno rita
In jeans and pearls
Dm9 G13-9 Cm9 Am9 B7+9(no5)
But first let's get off this highway off this highway
We'll move up to Manhattan
And fill the place with friends
-5/ -5add
Drive to the coast and drive right back again
One day we'll wake up, make love but 'til then
Try to hang on Maxi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ine

We'll move up to Manhattan
And fill the place with friends

Drive to the coast and drive right back again
One day we'll wake up, make love but 'til then
Try to hang on Maxi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-ine
