[Verse 1]
C#m A
Paper bags and plastic hearts
E B A
All are belongings in shopping carts
C#m
It's goodbye
A E B A
But we got one more night
C#m A
Let's get drunk and ride around
E B A
And make peace with an empty town
C#m A A(pause)
We can make it right
[Chorus]
C#m A
Throw it away, forget yesterday
E B
We'll make the great escape
C#m A
We won't hear a word they say
E B
They don't know us anyway
A C#m
Watch it burn, let it die
A B
Cause we are finally free tonight
[Verse 2]
Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
But we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think it's just cause were young
And we'll feel so alive
[Chorus]
C#m A
Throw it away, forget yesterday
E B
We'll make the great escape
C#m A
We won't hear a word they say
E B
They don't know us anyway
A C#m
Watch it burn, let it die
A B
Cause we are finally free tonight
[Bridge]
A B
All of the wasted time
A B
The hours that were left behind
A B
The answers that we'll never find
A
They don't mean a thing tonight
[Solo]
C# A E B
[Chorus]
N.C.
Throw it away, forget yesterday
N.C.
We'll make the great escape
N.C.
We won't hear a word they say
N.C.
They don't know us anyway
N.C.
Watch it burn, let it die
N.C.
Cause we are finally free tonight
C#m A
Throw it away, forget yesterday
E B
We'll make the great escape
C#m A
We won't hear a word they say
E B
They don't know us anyway
A C#m
Watch it burn, let it die
A B
Cause we are finally free tonight
C#m A
Throw it away, forget yesterday
E B
We'll make the great escape
C#m A
We won't hear a word they say
E B
They don't know us anyway
A C#m
Watch it burn, let it die
A B
Cause we are finally free tonight
