He was a simple boy, he just liked to have fun

A head on collision
(Verse)
And daddy told her she could never have
Late night help with her math
So she sits crying by the window
Every time she gets another A
She makes it another day
And it's just that simple
(Pre-Chorus)
Shake up my life
(Chorus)
Lets go...
Back to the days when we were young and not restless
We still believed and hadn't built our defenses
I'll tell you one things for sure
Till we make the decision
We'll never take this world
Unless we make a head on collision
A head on collision
(Bridge)
G# B
Here they come now
Will you come down?
Make 'em run now
On to the next town
Here they come now
Let's make 'em run now
No time to fake now
Everything breaks down
(x2)
(Verse1)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)x2
