[Verse]
E                             B                                C#m\B
Paper bags and plastic hearts, our belongings in shopping carts, its goodbye
A                          E
But we got one more night, Let's get drunk and ride around
B
And make peace with an empty town
A
We can make it right
 
 
[Chorus]
        C#m
Throw it away
             A
Forget yesterday
               E     B
We'll make the great escape
             C#m     A
Won't hear a word they say
                E     B
They don't know us anyway
A                                                    B
Watch it burn, Let it die, Cause we are finally free tonight
 
 
C#m, A, E, B x1
 
 
[Verse 2]
E                              B                               C#m\B
Tonight will change our lives, It's so good to be by your side, We'll cry
A                           E
We won't give up the fight, We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
B                                               A
And they'll think it's just 'cause we're young, And we'll feel so alive
 
 
[Chorus]
        C#m
Throw it away
             A
Forget yesterday
               E     B
We'll make the great escape
             C#m     A
Won't hear a word they say
                E     B
They don't know us anyway
A                                                    B
Watch it burn, Let it die, Cause we are finally free tonight
 
 
[Bridge]
C#m
All of the wasted timing
A
Hours that were left behind me
E
Answers that we'll never find
B
They don't mean a thing tonight
 
 
[Chorus]
        C#m
Throw it away
             A
Forget yesterday
               E     B
We'll make the great escape
             C#m     A
Won't hear a word they say
                E     B
They don't know us anyway
        C#m
Throw it away
             A
Forget yesterday
               E     B
We'll make the great escape
             C#m      A
Won't hear a word they say
                E      B
They don't know us anyway
        C#m
Throw it away
             A
Forget yesterday
               E     B
We'll make the great escape
             C#m      A
Won't hear a word they say
                E      B
They don't know us anyway
A                                                   B
Watch it burn, Let it die, Cause we are finally free tonight
