[Intro] C Am G F G G7 C Am G F G G7 [Verse]
C                   Am  G
As far as I could tell

F                       G      G7
I was the center of the universe

F                             G         G7
The favorite stepchild of our Mother Earth

     C     G/B      Am
And every camera's dream
[Verse]
C                           Am  G
'Til something broke the spell

         F                     G        G7
And the cold hard facts I was hiding from

F                       G      G7
Were at the mercy of the pendulum

           C        G/B    Am  Am/G
And I was smashed to smithereens
[Prechorus]
D7/F#                    C
Let's try and have some fun tonight

Fm                     C       F      G
Let's act like we got nowhere else to be
[Chorus]
            C        Am   G     F         G
Like we're just as young as we used to be

               C    Am     G     F        G
That goes for everyone but me especially
[Break] C Am G F G G7 [Verse]
C              Am  G
Documents and names

    F                               G       G7
An eye twitch away from what they really mean

         F                 G         G7
In the shadow world of the in-betweens

      C           G/B     Am
That surrounds us on all sides
[Verse]
C                       Am  G
You can look the other way

                 F               G     G7
In fact, that's all I did until recently

F                         G     G7
'Til the expiration of my amnesty

         C       G/B     Am  Am/G
Left me nowhere else to hide
[Prechorus]
D7/F#                    C
Let's try and have some fun tonight

Fm                   C     F       G
Let's act it could always be this good
[Chorus]
            C        Am   G     F         G
Like we're just as young as we used to be

               C    Am     G     F        G
That goes for everyone but me especially
[Bridge]
Dm            Am
A flatlining learning curve

F                     C
On the last leg with low reserves

Dm                Am
A desperado that lost his nerve

        F
Trying now to serve

          G           G7
Teach me how to serve
[Chorus]
              C       Am   G     F        G
'Cause we're not as young as we used to be

                 C    Am     G     F      G
And it goes for everyone but me especially
[Chorus]
              C       Am   G     F        G
'Cause we're not as young as we used to be
(Why am I still the youngest guy my age? Why am I still reading the same page?)
                 C    Am     G     F
And it goes for everyone but me especially
(I know it's hard for everyone)
           G
And you especially
[Outro] C Am G F G G7 C Am G F
