Bridge:
[Em] Lollipop [C]dreams and
candycane [G]waves
Are gonna hurt like [D]hell
when they crumble a[Em]way
Because a beautiful [C]youth
hurts worst when it [G]dies
A rotten re[D]minder of the
days we de[C]cided we'd rather
go big and then rot a[Em]way
We'd give into [D]love
and wind up casta[C]ways
We said "fuck all the old
boring shits we've be[Em]come"
So we hoarded our [D]dreams
and we burnt every [C]one
And [D]fuck me man I [Em]knew
not what I'd [C]done
[D]Fuck us man we [Em]knew
not what we'd [C]done
[Em]Fuck us man we [D]knew
not what we'd [C]done
[D]Man we were just
having some [G]fun[D/F#]

and the [C]hearts
are dull and [G]grey
So [G]take me down
to that [Bm]city
where the [Em]girls
just look o[C]kay
It's a[C]bout all
I can [D--]take it
I've stood too
