[Intro]
B G#m
I slipped into this dimension through my misguided intentions
E F#
i wanna take a moment make it clear if you'll please pay me your attention
B G#m
We tried to play it safe. We tried to understand,
E F# B
I tried to ask for help, but nobody's gonna hold my hand!
B G#m
we must've forgot, what do you wanna be when you're older
E F#
we said i dunno like an austronaut or a doctor or something a little bolder
B G#m E
well now that i sit and try to process everything we were told
F# B
Do i live like i'm dying, or do i die till i'm old?
[Pre-Chorus]
B G#m E F#
Woah Woah Woah Woah (x2)
[Chorus]
E F# B G#m
We are the pretty faces, the imperfect perfections, the worn out traces
E F# B G#m
of hope we are the crying laughter, the warm hugs the lost the the never afters
E F# B G#m
of course We are the pretty faces, we practice in mirrors, so we can just make it A day
E F# B G#m E F#
These are the best years of our lives. Woah. These are the best years of our lives.
[Verse 2]
B G#m
you shouldn't just spend all the while, screaming at the sky in denial,
E F#
believe in what you can be all the same that dying in vain won't
B G#m E
relieve your pain through other's disdain I'm caught my immortal soul has taught
F#
me all I can see is all I can Be BUT
B G#m E
I just wanna be me cause everything you say goes over my head and into my dreams
F#
and dives into my bed well so that it's seems that living instead
B G#m
of trying to relieving my crying with smiles i'll sing for a while
E F#
and live on my knees like i'm humbled and pleased and humble me cause i believe that
[Chorus]
E F# B G#m
We are the pretty faces, the imperfect perfections, the worn out traces
E F# B G#m
of hope we are the crying laughter, the warm hugs the lost the the never afters
E F# B G#m
of course We are the pretty faces, we practice in mirrors, so we can just make it A day
E F# B G#m E F# B G#m E F#
These are the best years of our lives. Woah. These are the best years of our lives.
[Bridge]
B G#m E F#
I must apologize but is it wrong for me to act upon? That you insprie me with all that I am
B G#m E
to write these songs. It's like a simple silly beautiful point of view on rainy days with a
F#
patch of sun in the sky I look up to see its, you.
B G#m E F#
I must apologize but is it wrong for me to act upon? That you insprie me with all that I am
B G#m E
to write these songs. I need a beacon of hope I'm sorry but I chose you oh won't you glance my
F#
way and tell me that you're falling too?
[Pre-Chorus]
B G#m E F#
Woah Woah Woah Woah (x2)
[Chorus]
E F# B G#m
We are the pretty faces, the imperfect perfections, the worn out traces
E F# B G#m
of hope we are the crying laughter, the warm hugs the lost the the never afters
E F# B G#m E
of course We are the pretty faces, we practice in mirrors, so we can just make it A day
F# B G#m E F# B G#m E F#
These are the best years of our lives. Woah. These are the best years of our lives.
[Outro]
E F# B G#m
Won't you tell me won't you tell me it'll be alright? No.
E F# B G#m
Won't you tell me won't you tell me it'll be just fine? Oh.
E F# B G#m
These are the best years of our lives. Woah.
E F# B G#m
Won't you tell me won't you tell me it'll be alright? No.
E F# B G#m
Won't you tell me won't you tell me it'll be just fine? Oh.
E F# B G#m E F# B G#m
These are the best years of our lives. Woah.. These are the best years of our lives...
