D#                                G#
We're too young to know what love is, our loss
        Cm                G#       A#
Cynical eyes scanning the room for meaning
D#                                 G#
Maybe youth is wasted on the young, our loss
          Cm                   G#      A#
Travel in packs, drinking our teenage spirit

Cm
Maybe we're all clean-cut criminals
A#
Running fast to blur the visuals
G#
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh)
Cm
I'm not sure I've got the heart for this
A#
Maybe that's the hardest part of it
G#
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh,
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oh ooh)

Chorus:
          D#
If we're brave enough we won't save it up for later
         G#
Come on show me what come on show me what you mean
               A#                  Cm
I'll start the engine up, come on show
               Gm
me what you're made of
G#
We're not damaged goods,
Cm                A#
maybe we're just lonely people

Now I feel like we're total strangers, so what?
Monopoly minds following blind to danger
This feels like a race against the clock, tick tock
And all of our tears are rolling off silver medals

Not sure I've got the heart for this
Maybe that's the hardest part of it

Chorus

Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh

Do we have the time to justify all
these sins we try to glorify?
I think we're gonna regret these haircuts

Chorus

Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Maybe we're just lonely people
Don't you save a word for later
Tell me, just what are you thinking?
Give me something to believe in
Maybe we're just lonely people
