Intro: D5 , A5 , B5 , G5

Verse 1:
   D5
Im leaving tonight
Down the same dirt road
A5
A million times
                            B5
Ive driven just to get home
                         G5
And I aint ever looking back
For nothing

D5
Headed for the coast
Looking for the high life
A5
Everybody knows
                            B5
Its nothing but a good time
                         G5
And I sold everything I had
For something
E5              G5
I cant seem to find

Chorus:
D5                                 A5    
 So this is the life they talked about
                                B5
And this is the I cant live without
                            G5
When the real world crashes down
                        D5
Oh if they could see me now
                                 A5
When all the dreams are all your own
                        B5
Turn to nightmares all alone
                               G5
It hits you right between the eyes
            D5     A5
This is the life
             B5
This is the life
    G5
ohohoh


Verse 2:
D5                                     
These four walls feel more like a prison
  A5                  
Instead of pure highs
                          B5
I couldnt wait to live in
                           G5
So I just drink myself to sleep
Again

  D5
I cant escape my mind
                       
This aint like a movie
    A5
Its getting hard to hide
                    B5
More its doin to me
                            G5
I dont know how long I can keep
From going
E5             G5
Crazy all the time

Chorus:
D5                                 A5    
 So this is the life they talked about
                               B5
So this is the I cant live without
                            G5
When the real world crashes down
                        D5
Oh if they could see me now
                                 A5
When all the dreams are all your own
                        B5
Turn to nightmares all alone
                               G5
It hits you right between the eyes
            D5     A5    B5    G5
This is the life


 

Bridge:
B5
   Nothings ever what it seems
A5
   Maybe that grass aint so green
B5                      G5
   Nothings ever out of reach

When youre seventeen


Chorus:
D5                               A5
  This is the life they talked about
                            B5
This is the I cant live without
                             G5
When the real world crashes down
                         D5
Oh if they could see me now
                                 A5
When all the dreams are all your own
                         B5
Turn to nightmares all alone
                              G5
It hits you right between the eyes
             D5    
This is the life
   A5
Ohhoh
             B5
This is the life
  G5
