Biography:
Shortly after the New Jersey ska punk group Face First disbanded in 2002, singer/guitarist Tom "Chitty" Keiger, bassist Jarrett Selzer, trumpet "Okie" Okamoto and drummer Tommie Clayton decided to reunite to play a poppier, more synthesized form of modern punk rock. Therefore, Okamoto switched from trumpet to keyboard, and Kenny Ryan, formerly of Hidden in Plain View, joined as a second guitarist. The name "Houston Calls", according to the band, is a combination of chapter titles from the Apollo 13 DVD.

Verse:
G D Em
Change; I can’t deal with this change.
C G D Em C
All these people, they say that it’s cause for inspiration.
G D Em
But I’ve got this pain so real I see what I’ve gained
C G D Em C
But I feel like I’ve gotten here by losing so much more.
Chorus:
G D C
Life won’t wait for me to get back on both my feet again.
G D
It just likes to sucker me into the new
C
And then flip the switch on everything I do
Em D C
‘Cause when opportunity knocks you have to let her in
Verse 2 + Chorus 2 are played the same as above
Change; I could just stay the same but what would that prove to you?
I’ve got this pain so real I see what I’ve gained
But I feel like I’m setting myself up to lose it all, it all, it all.
Life won’t wait for me to get back on both my feet again.
It just likes to sucker me into the new
And then flip the switch on everything I do
‘Cause when opportunity knocks you have to let her in
Bridge:
G D
I’ve got three striped squares I can’t get away from
Em C
Oh, I’ve got no four walls to call my own
G
Yea, I’ve got four controllers and four good friends
D
We keep it real until our lives all end
Em
Whatever was I thinking?
C
The best times of my life are just beginning
Chorus x2
END.
