[Verse]
Gm
Ever since I was a little kid I knew what I wanted
F
But I was a bit shy so I never ever flaunted
Eb
Haunted me all my life like a ghost in the night
Cm Dm
But I wasn’t afraid to leave the closet open wide
Gm
And growing up gets a little tough when
F
The kids are all mean, they’re leaving you out
And saying that you’re not enough
Eb
You’re gonna get through this
See what the truth is
Cm Dm
The cool kids from the past are gonna be biting their tongues
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
Oh yes, I know I’m young but I
F
Know things won’t come if I don’t try
Eb
Time really isn’t on my side
Cm Dm
What’s gonna happen tomorrow?
Gm
But right now I’m breathing, I’m alive
F
I’d rather seize it all and thrive
Eb
Than reach the day I die
Cm Dm
Wish I’d have done it before cause
[Chorus]
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm
I’m gonna do what I want with it
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm Gm F Eb Cm Dm
I’m gonna do what I want with it
[Verse]
Gm
Now I’m looking to the future,
Learning from the past
F
The present is a present but it isn’t meant to last
Eb
In the fast lane with the fast pass
Screaming my name
Cm
Don’t forget it you’re gonna regret it
Dm
Cause you let me go, a damn
Gm
Shame on you you didn’t believe it before
F
Claim that you could read all the signs on the door
Eb
Fame was something that was inevitable
Cm Dm
I bet you wish you could touch me now
Gm
But I’m high up in a sky with a thousand stars
F
Lies were being told and creating scars
Eb
And I know why cause all the hurt has taken me far
Cm Dm
The haters and the naysayers
Are gonna be wishing they’d swung
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
Oh yes, I know I’m young but I’ve
F
Learned that it’s worth it when you try
Eb
Cause you’ve gotta fall a thousand times
Cm Dm
Before you die you gotta live through the sorrow
Gm
See the forest for the trees and be able to find
F
The reason for the letters and the words that never rhyme
Eb
Cause when it is your time,
Cm Dm
You’re gonna wish you’d have done it before
[Chorus]
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm
I’m gonna do what I want with it
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm Gm
I’m gonna do what I want
[Bridge]

Before it’s over now

Before it’s over now
Dm
Over now, now now
Gm F
Starting over now
Eb
Starting over now
Cm
Before it’s over now
Dm
Over now, now now
[Chorus]
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm
I’m gonna do what I want with it
Gm F
Life is short, life is short
Eb
So I’m gonna do what I want
Cm Dm Gm
I’m gonna do what I want
F

Eb
Ouh ouh ouh
Cm Dm
I’m gonna do what I want
