=====================
Verse: (just follow the strum of the guitar.)
F#m
Close the door and take the stairs.
D 
Up or down? 
        C#m
Ups and downs. 
Don't pretend you've never been there. 
    F#m                           D
You kiss me like an overdramatic actor 
                   C#m
Who's starving for work, 
With one last shot to make it happen. 
       F#m                                                  D
You've won the role, you've played your part, you've been cordially 

invited.
        C#m 
But I'm not impressed, and I'm definitely not excited. 
           F#m                                 D                            
'Cause the film runs a shallow budget, and the writer's 
                         C#m
subject script isn't any deeper. So dive right in... 

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills, 
Hey you, who are you kidding? 
I'm not like them. I won't buy in. 
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills, 
Hey you, who are you kidding? 
Don't quit 'til 47. 
Then we'll turn it up and we'll play a little faster. 

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)
Take back everything you ever said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 
Take back everything you said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 
She said 

Just do the same chords like from verse 1. (F#m-D-C#m)
"All right, All right, slow down!" 
Oh no, oh no, we won't. 
'Cause I regret every thing that I said 
To ever make her feel like she was something special, 
Or that she ever really mattered. 
Or did she ever really matter? 

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills, 
Hey you, who are you kidding? 
I'm not like them. I won't buy in. 
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills, 
Just don't count on this summer. 
Don't quit 'til 47. 
Then we'll turn it up and we'll play a little faster. 

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)
Take back everything you ever said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 
Take back everything you said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 

D                    F#m                   A
I'm not saying that I'm not breaking some hearts tonight, girl. 
Oh... 
D                    F#m                   A
I'm not saying that I'm not breaking some hearts tonight, girl. 
G
All right, all right, slow down... 

Interlude: C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)
Take back everything you ever said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 
Take back everything you said. 
You never meant a word of it. You never did. 

C.P - (Bm-D-A-E)3X
Hollywood hills and suburban thrills, 
Hey you, who are you kidding? 
I'm not like them (not like them). 
I won't buy in (won't buy in).
