B                 F#
Can I tell you a story
        D#m                   C#
'Bout a boy who broke his own heart?
                     B             F#
And he always blamed everybody else
                         D#m              C#
But the truth is that he did it to himself
    B                       F#
He made a couple songs and they got big
D#m                               C#
Thought that he could do whatever he wanted
       B   F#                          D#m   C#
But it all left him with a hole in his heart

B       F#   D#m            C#
Ooh-ooh-ooh, money buys you happiness
    B       F#      D#m             C#
But ooh-ooh-ooh, it doesn't buy you time

Chorus:
     B              F#
The more that I get older
    D#m             C#
The less I wanna be sober
    B                F#
And I can't quit, goddamnit
D#m             C#
Maybe I'm just broken
    B            F#
And I'll never admit it
       D#m             C#
That I wish that I was younger
     B               F#   D#m
Yeah, twenty-six and rich
                    C#           B
How the hell did it come to this?

And I wish I could tell you
That everything is perfect, but it's not
I was staring at the ceiling for, like, ten days
But I'm pretty sure that I forgot
What it's like to be a person that doesn't think
That everything he does just sucks
Oh, it's a perfect world until it's not

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Money buys you happiness
But, ooh-ooh-ooh
Doesn't buy you time

Chorus

The more that I get older
The less I wanna be sober
Yeah, twenty-six and rich
How the hell did it come to this?
