Verse 1
D5We Started So Young, Our Direction Unknown
Wе Just B5Fell And We Rose With Thе G5Tides
D5Light-Years From Perfect And Destined To Fail
But It B5Sure Was A Hell Of A G5Ride
It D5All Seemed So Rad
Drugs And A5Booze On The Tracks
'Til A B5Friend Turned Up Dead Or In G5Jail
Then D5After A While It Got A5Harder To Smile
Once We B5Realized We Were Living In G5Hell

Pre-Chorus
F#5For Days 'N Daze We Ran Place To Place To G5Dull The Hate And Pain
But F#5Now The Weights Been Lifted Cause We're G5Circling The A5Drain

Chorus

Verse 2
D5In The Beginning It Was All So Exciting
When We B5Still Had So Much Left To G5Learn
We'd D5Not Yet Been Jaded, Our Senses Unfaded
When We B5Still Had Hope Left For The G5World
Still Fairly UnD5familiar With Tragedy And A5Armed With A Propensity
For B5Making The Best Out Of G5Bad
But Our Dispositions D5Far More Dismal Nowadays
BeA5cause Somewhere Along The Way
We B5Forgot About All The Good Times That We've G5Had

Pre-Chorus
F#5For Days 'N Daze We Ran Place To Place To G5Dull The Hate And Pain
But F#5Now The Weights Been Lifted Cause We're G5Circling The A5Drain

B5 If I Could Turn G5Back Time, ReD5wind The Clocks To A5Yesteryear
B5 I'd Do It G5All The Same 'Cause D5All The Missteps Got A5Me Here
B5I've Learned My Lessons, Paid G5My Dues
The D5Future's Now, No A5Time To Lose
What's B5Next Is Anybody's GueG5ss And I Can't Wait To FA5ind DOut
