Verse 1
A5We Started So Young, Our Direction Unknown
Wе Just F#5Fell And We Rose With Thе TD5ides
A5Light-Years From Perfect And Destined To Fail
But It F#5Sure Was A Hell Of A RD5ide
It A5All Seemed So Rad
Drugs And E5Booze On The Tracks
'Til A F#5Friend Turned Up Dead Or In JD5ail
Then A5After A While It Got E5Harder To Smile
Once We F#5Realized We Were Living In HD5ell

Pre-Chorus
C#5For Days 'N Daze We Ran Place To Place To D5Dull The Hate And Pain
But C#5Now The Weights Been Lifted Cause We're D5Circling The E5Drain

Verse 2
A5In The Beginning It Was All So Exciting
When We F#5Still Had So Much Left To LD5earn
We'd A5Not Yet Been Jaded, Our Senses Unfaded
When We F#5Still Had Hope Left For The WD5orld
Still Fairly UnA5familiar With Tragedy And E5Armed With A Propensity
For F#5Making The Best Out Of BD5ad
But Our Dispositions A5Far More Dismal Nowadays
BeE5cause Somewhere Along The Way
We F#5Forgot About All The Good Times That We've HD5ad

Pre-Chorus
C#5For Days 'N Daze We Ran Place To Place To D5Dull The Hate And Pain
But C#5Now The Weights Been Lifted Cause We're D5Circling The E5Drain
