[Verse 1]
A
We're too young to know what love is, our loss
C#m A B
Cynical eyes scanning the room for meaning
E A
Maybe youth is wasted on the young, our loss
C#m A B
Travel in packs, drinking our teenage spirit
[Pre-chorus]
C#m
Maybe we're all clean-cut criminals
C#m/B
Running fast to blur the visuals
A
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh,
A
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh)
C#m
I'm not sure I've got the heart for this
C#m/B
Maybe that's the hardest part of it
A
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh,
A //
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh)
[Chorus]
E
If we're brave enough we won't save it up for later
A
Come on show me what come on show me what you’re made of
B C#m C#m/Ab
Start the engine up, come on show me what you're made of
A C#m B
We're not damaged goods, maybe we're just lonely people
[Verse 2]
N.C. A
I feel like we're total strangers, so what
C#m A B
Monopoly minds, following blind to danger
E A
This feels like a race against the clock, tick tock
C#m A B
All of our tears are rubbing off silver metals
[Pre-chorus]
C#m
I'm not sure I've got the heart for this
C#m/B
Maybe that's the hardest part of it
A
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh,
A
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh)
[Chorus]
E
If we're brave enough we won't save it up for later
A
Come on show me what come on show me what you’re made of

Start the engine up, come on show me what you're made of

We're not damaged goods, maybe we're just lonely people

Tell me just what are you thinking

Do we have the time to justify

All these sins we try to glorify?

I think we're gonna regret these hair cuts
