E
We were young, we were brave
     C#m
With our eyes wide shut in the choices we made
          A                B
Well you lit the match and I got caught
           E
with the flames

And your voice still rings out through my mind
And the thorns still twist down in my side
All the promises said that we left for dead
in the night (woo woo)

             A      E   A       E   A          E
Because I'm moving on, letting go, forget the past
           B
And giving up the ghost
A       E      A       E     A           E
All we are is fading stars, life's too short
          B
to stay where we are.

Chorus:
 A        E                    B
Forgive, let live and move on tell me
             C#m             B
that you're gonna make me stronger
 A        E                    B
Forgive, let live and move on (woo)
Forgive, let live and move on tell me
that you're gonna make me stronger
Forgive, let live and move on (woo)

Maybe I'm broken, maybe it's the fame
Maybe it's the moment you said I had changed
Where did thirteen years go like
I didn't know you at all? (woo woo)

Because I'm moving on, letting go
Forget the past
I'm giving up the ghost
All we are is fading stars,
life's too short to stay where we are

Chorus

I heard you were back with regrets and you meant it
I had a reply to your text, never sent it
When bridges are burning in accusation
Funny how time is the great revelation (woo)

Moving on, letting go
Forget the past
I'm giving up the ghost
All we are is fading stars,
life's too short to stay where we are
