Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][D][C]

[Verse 1]
Filled my[G]self with
soot from [C]top to bottom
I'm [G]a smokestack
Turnin' blood into booze
Now my [C]liver's on fumes
[D]Little alcoholic
I'm always [C]beating my[D]self up
Why did I [G]have to play [D]so [C]rough?
I tried to [G]get the hell out
[D]And I'm standin' in my own [G]way

[Verse 2]
No, we [G]can't skip school any[C]more
Do you miss those [G]days at all?
I miss starting up fires
Throwing bottles [C]at trains
[D]Pissing on convenience store walls
Well, it was [C]time for me to [D]go home
Let's go and [G]make some flyers
for our [C]third floor show
[G]Mom and dad can wait
[D]This is the path that [G]we chose
[D]

[Verse 3]
Do you really believe that
didn't mean [G]anything?[D]
Now do you really believe those
days didn't [Em]mean a [C]thing?
[D]'Cause I'm still believin',
that means [G]everything[D]
Do you really believe those days
didn't [Em]mean a [C]thing?
'Cause I sure [D]don't
Made my [C]life
You changed my [G]life[D][C]
It changed my [G]life[D]
[C]

[Verse 4]
Well, I was [G]scared as hell as I was [C]standing
At that [G]open bar
I saw a life go past that I [C]guess I coulda had
[D]But I didn't try very hard
You see, [C]I knew you two [D]would last
Why did you [G]have to jump so [C]fast?
Now put the [G]baby to bed
[D]'Cause it's time for me to [G]go home
[D]

[Verse 5]
Do you really believe that
didn't mean [G]anything?[D]
Do you really believe those
days didn't [Em]mean a [C]thing?
[D]'Cause I'm still believin',
that means [G]everything[D]
Do you really believe those days
did[Em]n't mean a [C]thing?
'Cause I sure [D]don't
It made my [C]life
You changed my [G]life[D][C]
You changed my [G]life[D][C]
You changed my [G]life[D]
