Mildenhall (米尔登霍尔) (Flipped) - The Shins[00:00:00]
Written by:James Mercer[00:00:00]
At fifteen we had to leave the states again[00:00:27]
Dad was stationed at an raf base they called Mildenhall[00:00:31]
Black moss on a busted wall[00:00:36]
The cobblestones made it hard to skate[00:00:42]
I thought my flattop was so new wave[00:00:46]
Until it melted away[00:00:49]
In the suffolk rain[00:00:52]
Well god damn you miss the USA[00:00:56]
Then a kid in class passed me a tape[00:01:05]
An invitation not the hand of fate[00:01:12]
I guess my shoes said I might relate[00:01:19]
Somehow she knew I'd like to stay up waiting with her in the cold[00:01:23]
For cheap beer and rock 'n roll[00:01:28]
Which in time put lots of things in my mind[00:01:32]
A kid in class passed me a tape[00:01:41]
We saw some bands down at the corn exchange[00:01:49]
I wonder where my sister was that night[00:01:56]
Back at home under the tanning bed lights[00:01:59]
I can still see the glow[00:02:02]
Strange rays from her window[00:02:05]
Each night as I was skating home[00:02:10]
Started messing with my dad's guitar[00:02:18]
Taught me some chords just to start me off[00:02:22]
Whittling away on those rainy days[00:02:25]
And that's how we get to where we are now[00:02:32]
A kid in class passed me a tape[00:03:16]
A band called the Jesus and the Mary chain[00:03:24]
I started messing with my dad's guitar[00:03:31]
He taught me some chords just to start me off[00:03:34]
Whittling away on all of those rainy days[00:03:38]
And that's how we get to where we are now[00:03:44]
