E                                    A                  F#m                     
I bought my soul back from the devil, and now I?m keeping it all to myself.

E A E A

E                                  A                           F#m            
I?m checking myself out of the program , because I know what?s best for my health.

E A E A

G                  A                               E
So why live the dream like you?re running out of sleep?
                 C#m                          C
I?m not playing to pass time, I?m playing for keeps.
              Bm                                   ( E5   F#5  F#5  Eb5 x2)
We only just started and you?re throwing the fight.
G             A                    E
You?d rather burn out than fade away? 
       C#m
Well why not both, I plan to stay.
      C           Bm                          ( E   A  E  A  x2)
So let?s do this once and let?s do it right.


E                                    A                 F#m                      
I used to act like none of this mattered, I used to say that I didn?t care,

E   A  E  A

E                                    A              F#m                      
that we wouldn?t be doing this forever, but the truth is that I was just scared.

E   A  E  A


G                 A                    E
So you put up a front to protect yourself, 
                  C#m                            C
but if we?re down on the floor, why get back on the shelf?
                         Bm                             E5 E5   F#5  F#5  Eb5
You can?t change your outfit now the night has begun.
G                          A                        E                  C#m
But we?ve still got the fuel, we still have the fire, so me and you, Jay,
      C            Bm
let?s never retire, let?s keep on making mistakes till we?re done.  

E  A  E  A  

G                  A
It wont last, so be bold


C#m                 B                        E
I?m going to live fast and I?m going to die old,                     
                      A                       C#m              B
I?m going to end my days in a house with high windows on the quiet shores 
in the South-West.
 E5 E5   F#5  F#5  Eb5 

C#m                B                       E
So you sort the tunes and I?ll bring the beers,
                       A                      C#m          B      
on my seventieth birthday I?ll see you right here, and together we?ll watch the sun set.

E                             A            F#m
 Bada bada ba ,Bada bada ba ,Bada bada ba ,Bada bada ba x2


E                        A
There?s no one in my coffin, there?s nothing in my grave,
E                           A
I?m tired of being damned, I?d rather be saved,
            E                        A
and we can never sell out because we never bought in, 
      E
and if they build it back up,
            A
then we?ll swing through town and burn the whole thing down again.

C#m                 B                        E
I?m going to live fast and I?m going to die old,                     
                      A                       C#m              B
I?m going to end my days in a house with high windows on the quiet shores 
in the South-West.
 E5 E5   F#5  F#5  Eb5 

C#m                B                       E
So you sort the tunes and I?ll bring the beers,
                       A                      C#m          B      
on my seventieth birthday I?ll see you right here, and together we?ll watch the sun set.
