E
We shed tears for movie scenes
No real fears, fake feelings
C#m                         E
It's a sentimental wasteland
E
We're young enough to lose teeth
But not old enough for enemies
C#m                           E
Still steering with both hands

Chorus:
A
We were just kids living young and naïve
E
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
A                                        E
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
A
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
E
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A                               E
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones, oh

The bitter taste of nicotine
Still alive on my coat and jeans
But you were the light that I saw standing in front of the sun
You were the girl on the hill singing all night, all night

Chorus:
We were just kids living young and naïve
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones

                A
Maybe never be found
                   C#m
Like a drop in the ocean
                A
If we ever grow up
We'll be gone in the moment

E
Sugar drunk high
Sugar drunk high
C#m
Sugar drunk high
E
We were living on a
Sugar drunk high
E
Sugar drunk high
C#m
Sugar drunk high
E
Sugar drunk high

Chorus:
We were just kids living young and naïve
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones

Maybe never be found
Like a drop in the ocean
If we ever grow up
We'll be gone in the moment
