An easier way to play this song is by playing almost a bar A chord and sliding it 
up and down, it gives it a really full, great sound.

Verse 1:
      E               A             E   B
Lets all pack up and move this year
E                   A         E   B
Slips the liars and disappear
E                   A         E   B
Leave memories for auctionneers
E                   A         E   B
And those just standing still


Verse 2:
E                   A         E   B
They'll miss the taste of wanting you
E                   A         E   B
Call out your name like I still do
E                   A         E   B
But they never said a word that's true
E                   A         E   B
And they only hold you down


Chorus:
C#m      A          E   
And this heartbreak world
   B
Of just imagine
C#m      A       E   
With its tired talk 
B
Of better days
C#m      A       E 
And this heartbreak world
B
Where nothing matters
A                                          B
Come on lets make this dream that's barely half awake come true


Verse 3:
E                   A         E   B
Let's move out of Los Angeles
E                     A            E   B
Just drive until this summer gives
E                      A           E   B
And forget the lies we use to live
E                   A         E   B
'cause we're gone


Chorus:
C#m      A          E   
And this heartbreak world
   B
Of just imagine
C#m      A       E   
With its tired talk 
B
Of better days
C#m      A       E 
And this heartbreak world
B
Where nothing matters
A                                          B
Come on lets make this dream that's barely half awake come true
