Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G]
[D][G][F][G]
[D][G]
[D][C][D][Dm][G]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I bought my soul back from the dev[G]il,
And now [Em]I'm keeping it all [D]to myself.
[G][D][G][D]
I'm checking myself
out of the pro[G]gram,
Because [Em]I know what's best
for my [D]health.[G][D][G]
[F]
So why live the [G]dream like you're
running out of sleep[D]?
I'm not playing [Bm]to pass time,
I'm playing [G]for keep[Bb]s.
We only [C]just started

[Verse 2]
and you're throwing
the fight[D].[Em][D][A][Em][G][F]
You'd rather burn [G]out than
fade [D]away?
Well why [Bm]not both, I p[G]lan [Bb]to stay.
So let's do [C]this once and let's

[Interlude 1]
do it right.
[A][G][D][Em][F]
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
I used to [D]act like none of this [G]mattered,
I used [Em]to say that I didn't [D]care,
[G][D][G][Dsus4][C]
[D]
That we wouldn't be
doing this [Bm]forever[G],
[A]But [Em]the truth is that I was just

[Interlude 2]
scared.
[D][G][D][G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[F]So you put up a [G]front to protect yourself,
[D]But if we're down on the[Bm] floor,
Why get [G]back on [Bb]the shelf?
You can't change [C]your outfit

[Verse 5]
now the night has begun.
[D]But [Em]we've[G][D][Em][G]
[F]still got the fue[G]l,
We still have the [D]fire,
so me [Bm]and you, Jay,
Let's nev[G]er retire,
[Bb]Let's keep on ma[C]king mistakes till we're

[Interlude 3]
done.
[A][G][D][Em][F]
[G][Bm]
I'm going to [A]live fast

[Verse 6]
and
I'm going to die [D]old,
I'm going to end my [G]days in a
house with high [Bm]windows
On [A]the quiet shores in the South-West.

[Verse 7]
[D]So [A]So [D]you[A] so[Bm]rt the tunes[A]
and I'll bring the [D]beers,
And on my seventi[G]eth birthday
I'll see you right [Bm]here,
And [A]to gether we'll watch the sun

[Interlude 4]
set.
[D][G][Em][A][Em]
[D][G][Em]
[A]There's

[Verse 8]
no one in my coffin,
There's [G]nothing in my grave,
I'm [D]tired of being damned,
[Em]I'd rather be saved,
And we can [A]never sell out
Because we [G]never bought in,
And if [D]they build it back up,
Then [Em]we'll swing back
through town
And burn the whole thing
down [A]again.[Bm]
[A]It[D][G][Bm]
[A][D][A][D][A][Bm]
[A][D][G][Bm]
[A][D][A][G][D]
[Em][D][A][G]
[D]won[Em]'t la[D]st so [A]be bold,[D][G]
[D][Em]
Choose [D]your [A]path, show [G]soul,
Live [D]fast and die [Em]old.[D]
