 Are we growing up or just going down?
             E                          Abm       F#
 It's just a matter of time until we're all found out
          B                     F#
 Take our tears and put them on ice
         E                                Abm
 Cause I swear I'd burn this city down to show you the light

 We're the chemists who've found the formula

 To make your heart swell and burst
Abm        E         F#           B       Abm  E F# B
 No matter what they say, don't believe a word

       E                 B                  Abm            B

[VERSE 2]
       Abm      E    F#
 We're traveled like gypsies
 B   Abm         E        F#       B
 Only with worse luck and far less gold
      Abm           E       F#
 We're the kids you used to love
B         Abm       E  F# B
 But then we grew old
             Abm E     F#       B
 We're the lifers here till the bitter end
Abm    E   F#       B
 Condemned from the start
Abm      E      F#
 Ashamed of the way 
     B             Abm      E    F#             B
 The songs and the words own the beating of our hearts

 There's a drug in the thermostat to warm the room up
              E                        Abm       F#
 And there's another around to help us bend your trust

 And I need to take a pill to make this town feel okay
