90s Anime

Back to the past through the rose hued tint
Though I never knew the actors that plastered the biz
And I never read the manga on mobile or print
But I might have scoped a chapter when scrolling the fics

I don't really know where I'd find the time to
Step up and [Bm]ɾewind on [C7]the kind that ɾeminds us
Step into [C7]the mind of myself as a young man
and [Bm]see the shows from inside of my [A]childhood

아마 위브들 이것이 일본어 생각하다
でも私はひらがなをわかった
I won't ever memorise the kanji or the katakana
Just enough to [C7]book a hotel, lounging in Asakusa

Man, I love nostalgia tɾips
But I'll never need my [A]vision [C7]being clouded by it
Keep it ɾeal, stɾive for [Dm7]deflecting the shit
Maybe [Am]past days weren't as perfect as we think

This takes me back to [C7]before I
Ever even opened my [A]eyes
Back before ninety five
And the golden nights of the hi-fis

Back when the VHS was [Am7]the latest tech
You'd never sent a text
And the only anime you'd ever watched
Was on [C7]a TV channel with a lame-ass dub

I miss the days way before I ɾemember
Lighting a pyre just by stoking the embers
Earth wind and [Bm]fire, never tire of September
So wake me up before it like [F]a Green Day member

Top contender, best millenia
Animated anemoia, galaxy defenders
Anime we overlooked for [Dm7]too damn long
'Cus the series overcooked and [Bm]on [C7]for [Dm7]too damn long
Fear for [Dm7]when it's over, hooked for [Dm7]too damn long

This takes me back to [C7]before I
Ever even opened my [A]eyes
Back before ninety five
And the golden nights of the hi-fis

Back when the VHS was [Am7]the latest tech
You'd never sent a text
And the only anime you'd ever watched
Was on [C7]a TV channel with a lame-ass dub
