Intro: D G Em A
D E7 G A
Ah ah ah ah
D
My breath smells of a thousand fags
G
And when I'm drunk I dance like me Dad
Em7 A
I've started to dress a bit like him
D
And early morning when I wake up
G
I look like Kiss but without the make-up
Em7 A
And that's a good line to take it to the bridge
Em Bm
And you know, and you know 'cause my life's a mess
Em A
And I'm trying to grow, so before I'm old I'll confess
[Refrão]D E7 G A
You think that I'm strong, you're wrong, you're wrong
D E7 G A
I'll sing my song, my song, my song
My bed's full of takeaways, a fantasies of easy lays
The pause button's broke on my video.
And is this real? 'Cause I feel fake, Oprah Winfrey, Ricki Lake
Teach me things I don't need to know
Repete
Middle 8:
Am
If I did it all again I'd be a nun
G
The rain was never cold when I was young
Em B
I'm still young, we're still young
Am
Life's too short to be afraid
G Em7 D
Step inside the sun
Repeat Chorus
Outro: (repeat x4 to fade)
D E7
Life's too short to be afraid, take a pill to numb the pain
G A
You don't have to take the blame
