(Detour, detour)
Ooh, we got to make a detour
A   A
The people try to crash land down
Shoot at the sky, a craze with rage
We're all good people if you go deep down
But we gotta be in keeping with the brand new age

D
Time for a detour
D                         F
We oughta take the curve (Detour now)

Taking the detour

With a curve and a swerve
A  A
(Detour) 
Mmm, detour 
A      A 
Forget that flaw from back in the day
And the power we sought as we took the stage
Made it 15 years till we found our ways
Our election fears as we turn the page

The road is blocked (Detour now)

We're finally tracking
       C#m 
in the path of the groove

We're willingly backing

the path of the moon
There'll be no more pain

We can't explain, we found the force, we're back on course

(Detour)
We need a detour 
A  A
(Detour)
Gonna have to make a detour

(Detour) 
Oh, with a curve and a swerve 
A   A
(Detour)

C5
Used to say I love you 
           G/B
but I was straight insane
F#m
I always left you holding 
    Em
the weight of my pain
       F                     G
'Cause I can't stay for even one more day
Bb5                            C5
I broke two hearts, I couldn't share the plots
D
Then I ran away

A  A
People try to crash right down
Shoot at the sky, a craze with rage
We're all good people if you go deep down
But we gotta be in keeping with the brand new age

D
Time for a detour
D                        F
We gotta take the curve (Detour now)
D
Making the detour
D                       F
It's time for a swerve (Detour now)

The world's in a spinnin'
     C#m
It's time for a change

We know we ain't winning
