Verse 1:
Em B5 C#5\B5
Paper bags and plastic hearts, our belongings in shopping carts, its goodbye
A Em
But we got one more night, Let's get drunk and ride around
B5
And make peace with an empty town
A
We can make it right
Chorus:
Abmaj
Throw it away
A
Forget yesterday
Em B5
We'll make the great escape
Abmaj A
Won't hear a word they say
Em B5
They don't know us anyway
A B5-1stroke down
Watch it burn, Let it die, Cause we are finally free tonight
Abmaj, A, Em, B5 x1
Verse 2:
Em B5 C#5\B5
Tonight will change our lives, It's so good to be by your side, We'll cry
A Em
We won't give up the fight, We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
B5 A
And they'll think it's just 'cause we're young, And we'll feel so alive
