All Time Low is an American pop punk band formed in Baltimore, Maryland, United States in 2003. When Alex Gaskarth (lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keyboards) was in middle school, he was moved from private school to public school, where he met Jack Barakat (lead guitar, backing vocals), and put the band together; later recruiting Rian Dawson (drums, percussion), and Zack Merrick (bass guitar, backing vocals). The band's name came from a line in the New Found Glory song Head On Collision.

[Verse 1] DA#m Here we are at the end of the road FC A road that's quietly caving in (caving in) DA#m Come to far to pretend that we don't FC We don't miss where we started (started)
[Pre-chorus] DA#m Looking back I see a setting sun FC Watch my shadow fade into the floor (floor) DA#m I am left standing on the edge FCBb Wondering how we got this far (how we got this far)
[Chorus] D They left us alone A#m The kids in the dark FC To burn out forever or light out the spark DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark so let the world sing DA#m What a shame what a shame FC Beautiful scars on critical veins DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark The kids in the dark
[Instrumental] DA#mFC
[Verse 2] DA#m Here we are at the top of the hill FC A hill that's quietly crumbling DA#m Been a while since you dressed for the kill FC The kill that sent me tumbling
[Pre chorus] DA#m Looking up I see a falling star FC And watch its fire burn into the floor DA#m And I am left standing on the edge FCBb Wondering why we fall so hard (why we fall so hard)
[Chorus] D They left us alone A#m The kids in the dark FC To burn out forever or light out the spark DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark so let the world sing DA#m What a shame what a shame FC Beautiful scars on critical veins DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark The kids in the dark
[Bridge] GFDC Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Whoooooooooo (Kids in the dark) GFDCBb Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Whoooooooooo (Kids in the dark)
[Chorus] D They left us alone A#m The kids in the dark FC To burn out forever or light out the spark DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark so let the world sing DA#m What a shame what a shame FC Beautiful scars on critical veins DA#m We come together state of the art F We’ll never surrender C The kids in the dark The kids in the dark
