B
B
One night we lay beside each other, so close to a sweat
With two fans circling overhead, we sleep on borrowed time
C#
And the traffic lights direct empty roads, the stars can't break the city
E
sky. But they still try despite what they know is already true
B
And tomorrow we'll take aim just like a storm waiting for a calm
C#
I can feel everything coming, in my chest my heart's already pounding
E
My head's on far off highways, 16 years old, on a road that never ends
F
Might drive into something that looks like a sunset
It lasts forever, and I never look back

E F#

B
And for the 4 year old girl found dead in a dumpster, shot by her mother,
her eulogy is the sound of construction through head to head traffic.
C#
Today is just another day. And me and my friends are just growing into the
E
drunks and the liars that we've always hated. Every shortcoming has trapped
B
us, every mistake is now our own infinite failure. So steal every chance we
C#
get, every advantage is taken when no one's looking. Well hidden behind closed doors
and we won't stop untill we are people that we've decided we
E
should be. I wanna be a shot heard around the world, fuckin' unstoppable.
F#
This distance is not something we'll regret. Between here and now and then and today
and forever and days after that till the very end.
Chorus
Just listen to the song to make it sound perfecto.
