Intro: D5 A5 E5 G5 x2 D5 A5 This is a song with the same four chords E5 G5 I use most of the time when I've got something on my mind D5 A5 And I don't want to squander the moment E5 G5 Trying to come up with a more complicated way to say what I want to say D5 A5 People were mean to you E5 G5 but I always thought you were cool D5 A5 clicking down the concrete hallway E5 with your spiked heels G5 back in high school. D5 A5 E5 G5 x2 D5 A5 It's good to be young but let's not kid ourselves E5 G5 It's better to pass on through those years and come out the other side D5 A5 With our hearts still beating E5 G5 Having stared down demons; come back breathing D5 A5 People were mean to you E5 G5 but I always thought you were cool D5 A5 clicking down the concrete hallway E5 with your spiked heels G5 back in high school. G5 A5 You deserved better than you got D5 G5 Someone's got to say it sometime because it's true. E5 A5 People should have told you you were awesome, D5 G5 *** Instead of taking advantage of you. D5 E5 A5 (half beat only for both E5 and A5 ) I hope you love your life E5 G5 Like I love mine. D5 A5 E5 I hope the painful memories only flex their power over you G5 A little of the time. D5 A5 We held onto the hope of better days coming E5 G5 And when we did we were right. D5 A5 I hope the people who did you wrong E5 G5 Have trouble sleeping every night. D5 A5 People were mean to you E5 G5 but I always thought you were cool D5 A5 clicking down the concrete hallway E5 with your spiked heels G5 back in high school. Outro: D5 A5 E5 G5 x2 *** In the video I transcribed this from , he seems to plays A5 here. However he sings to a G5 chord and I think it sounds better.
