Standard Tuning. EADGBE
Intro: Bm, Bsus2, G, A (x6)
Bm Bsus2 G A (repeated every line)
Here comes the lipgloss,
the brand name of their age
Roomates just paint love,
eye shadow turns to pink
Boys have a crush on the
teenage da - da girls
tonight with shaking hands
their red ties
Chorus:
G
Young people dance
Em
undressed
A Bm Bsus2
with tears hidden in their eyes
G Em A
and with fear they pretend to embrace
Bm Bsus2 G A (rhytmin' as verse)
drunken harms at night
G Bm A
‘You can take me in your hands’ they say
G Bm A
Kissin’ with lines of escape in mouth
G Bm A Em G A
Comin’ home late at late night to cry in front of their mirrors
G -> Bm -> A like before -> Em -> G -> A at end of verse.
Bitter sweet girls have a secret wish
Lonely boys have not the heart to phone
Love inside won’t let them back to sleep
They have lost control
Take a second to say goodbye and then
please don’t bite your lips when you walk alone
Youth, time is coming
G A Bm A (repeated every line)
Because of you tonight
I feel life, I choose pain
I give up nostalgia
Now help me pray for you
Bm Bsus2 G
A Bm Bsus2 G (repeated every line)
Don’t cry for yesterday
Stay wild another time
Carry on this mortal coil
