Most of the lyrics in the post-chorus are syncopated (fall between the beats),
which is why the chords look out of line. You might want to listen to the song
to hear the timing.
INTRO
Bb C Dm
Ohhhhhh ohhhhhhhhh
Bb C Dm
Yeah-ooooooooooooooooh
VERSE 1
Bb
We text as we eat
C
As we listen to the freaks
Dm
As we wait for the right of way
Bb
We text as we talk
C
We're running as we walk
Dm
Cos we surf our little souls away
Bb
We smoke as we choke
C
As we sink another Coke
Dm
And we grin when it blows our mind
Bb
We skate as we date
C
As we slowly suffocate
Dm
We're running, we're running, we're running
Gm
Out of time
CHORUS
Am
My life got cold
Dm
It happened many years ago
Gm C Dm
When Summer slipped away
Gm Am
So chill now whoa
Dm
We've gotten many years to go
Bb C Dm
So take it day by day
POST-CHORUS
Gm
And long ago
Am
I lost my soul
Dm
To some forgotten dream and
Gm C
How was I supposed to know
Dm
It wasn't what it seemed
Gm Am
And even though the last hello
Dm
Has left me on the floor
Bb C Dm
I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore
VERSE 2
Bb
We spend as we lend
C
Cos we're happy to pretend
Dm
Everything's gonna be OK
Bb
We shake as we break
C
Never give until we take
Dm
And we hate when we have to pay
Bb
We flirt while we work
C
To forget about the hurt
Dm
And the trash that we left behind
Bb
We sink as we swim
C
The ice is wearing thin
Dm
We're running, we're running, we're running
Gm
Out of time
CHORUS
Am
My life got cold
Dm
It happened many years ago
Gm C Dm
When Summer slipped away
Gm Am
So chill now whoa
Dm
We've gotten many years to go
Bb C Dm
So take it day by day
POST-CHORUS
Gm
And long ago
Am
I lost my soul
Dm
To some forgotten dream and

And even though the last hello
Dm
Has left me on the floor
Bb C Dm
I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore
