Biography:
Less Than Jake is a ska-punk band formed in 1992 in Gainesville, USA. Their current line-up consists of Chris DeMakes (vocals, guitar), Roger Lima (vocals, bass), Matt Yonker (drums), Buddy Schaub (trombone) and Peter "JR" Wasilewski (saxophone).
The band's name derives from a bird Vinnie had while growing up, which was treated better than the rest of the family. It's also a reference to the phrase "everything is jake," which is an old phrase meaning everything is cool.

We rode across that bridge all night

we talked our way through city lights

traced all the lines we're killing time

under those buzzing signs

from downtown to anywhere but here

tonight yeah I swear to these rooftops
B A
and just hoped that car would never stop
E B A F# A B
And I swear it's the last time and I swear it's my last try
E B A
and we'll walk in circles around this whole block
F# A B
walk on the cracks on the same old sidewalks
E B A F#
and we'll talk about leaving town
A B
yeah we'll talk about leaving
E B A F# A B
I swear it's the last time I swear it's my last try
VERSE: SAME CHORDS AND RHYTHM AS FIRST VERSE
we drove around this place all night
past closed signs and familiar sights
we're moving by passing time
counting those center lines
with 20,000 lines left to go
that lead to somewhere I don't know
it might be the time that we leave this all behind
CHORUS: SAME AS FIRST CHORUS, LET LAST CHORD RING OUT
BRIDGE: NO GUITAR, INTRO ON BASS
there's been a few times
that we thought it felt right
to take all the westbound signs
and just leave town tonight
CHORUS, THEN INTRO 2
