(Verse) I went to a doctor Who looked kind of familiar And a bit younger than me He told me to drink a little bit less And that he had been going to My gigs since two thousand and three He had been in the front of A half-empty club For my band’s first radio show I told him so stressed that day Till I walked out And saw that front row A week later I went out For a creative pickup At a new coffee spot Where I met the owners Who played my new song And gave me my shot They told me that I had inspired them To follow their dream As I took a sip, I told them, I think for me You kind of did the same thing (Chorus) Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh I wrote songs about growing up And watched you grow too Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh Under these dancing lights I felt Your glow and it helped me through Those lonesome cold nights In all those new and different places You always made them feel like a home With all your familiar faces (Verse) I saw a punky kid Who looked kind of familiar But twenty years younger than me I was feeling kinda old Until they turned around And I saw my logo on their tee That vintage shirt told This songwriter to keep making tunes And sing ‘em from this stage To the misfits From my generation And some misfits half my age (Chorus) Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh I wrote songs about growing up And watched you grow too Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh Under these dancing lights I felt Your glow and it helped me through Those lonesome cold nights In all those new and different places You always made them feel like a home With all your familiar faces (Bridge) Familiar cuz you’ve been Coming for decades And singing along Familiar cuz you just feel All the same Things in the songs And as these ageless images fly Through my mind I see you in thousands of frames Pictures of so many people I all know, but Only know a few names (Chorus) Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh I wrote songs about growing up And watched you grow too Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh Under these dancing lights I felt Your glow and it helped me through Those lonesome cold nights In all those new and different places You always made them feel like a home With all your familiar faces (Outro) All your familiar faces All your familiar faces All your familiar faces (They got me through) All those new and different places (Oh thank you) For all your familiar faces
