Mayday Parade was born in 2005 when two popular Tallahassee bands, Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment, decided to merge and form one group. Both bands had been friends for a long time but they each seemed to have different kind of holdups. They pooled their resources, booted out the undedicated members and decided to take the good from each band and move forward. Armed with a dynamic lead singer Derek Sanders of Defining Moment, Mayday Parade explodes with energy and personality.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
[verse] D Three years of something I call love G When the phone calls and photographs were never enough Bm To save a heart that’s been broken so close to screaming A This can’t be happening, I must be dreaming
D What’s the worst that could happen? I never knew G When all I ever wanted was to get away from you Bm But now the possible’s impossible and I can’t refuse A Grab all your dreams and raise all your glasses
[pre-chorus] EmF#m Let’s toast to the lucky ones GA To the girl that just broke my heart DABm I can’t breathe after all that you’ve told me GA You took my heart and made me melt again
[verse] D I could never imagine we’d end up this way G After all that we went through now I’m fighting through the pain Bm It’s like this heart that’s been broken is so close to screaming A Was ripped from my chest and I can’t stop the bleeding
D Now we all fall for the bad ones GBm They’ll just break us cause we’re so young, dumb, and vulnerable A Young and vulnerable
[pre-chorus] EmF#m Here’s a toast to the lucky ones GA To the girl that just broke my heart DABm I can’t breathe after all that you’ve told me GA You took my heart and made me melt again
[chorus] DBmF#m I can’t breathe after all that you’ve told me (You ripped apart these pages, our book was overrated) F#mGA You took my heart and made me melt again (This brings up all these questions, tell me what just happened, I’ll say)
[bridge] GD I put your picture in a frame that stands at the side of my bed AG So whenever I get sad I can stare at your face D And overplay that I won’t forget AGA When all I remember is talking is cheap and your lies were expensive BmA And God only knows when I’ll come to my senses GABm Now I can’t breathe at all (now I can’t breathe)
[pre-chorus] EmF#m Here’s a toast (here’s a toast) to the lucky ones (to the lucky ones) GA To the girl that just broke my heart
[chorus] DABm I can’t breathe after all that you’ve told me (You ripped apart these pages, our book was overrated) BmGA You took my heart and made me melt again (This brings up all these questions...tell me what happened)
BmC#mDAG I can’t breathe after all that you’ve told me (You ripped apart these pages, our book was overrated) GAD You took my heart and made me melt again! (This brings up all these questions, tell me what just happened, I’ll say) GAD Tell me what just happened
