A F#m Em D
A F#m
Sat on the stack, held it all back,
Em D
Let it all go to prevent a crack,
A F#m Em D
And it seems I miss you dearly.
A F#m
Youth on my side, so I'll find the time,
Em D
I'll grow up someday but for now I'm fine,
A F#m Em D
I just wish that you were near me.

- Verse:
A A
Glory days oh glory days behind me, set deep in tainted skin.
A
I'm well aware so don't remind me, how I can't seem to win.
F#m Em D
Accept defeat, curse the cracks of empty streets.
A F#m
But I don't wanna tell the same sad story,
Em D
Even if I did, you'd just ignore me.
A F#m Em D
I wear myself out trying to find an ending,
A F#m Em D
But I'll work this out when I stop pretending
A F#m
That I could never let this go,
Em D
There's more to life than chasing ghosts,
A F#m Em D
But then hindsight's 20/20.
- verse 2:
A
My old man once said 'Take heed, don't wait until you're just like me,
A
To look back over history with nothing but regret'.
A F#m
So all my friends sang fuck forever,
Em D
Live today and die together.
A F#m
We don't wanna tell the same sad story,
Em D
Heard it all before and that's fucking boring.
A F#m Em D
I wear myself out trying to find an ending,
A F#m Em D
But I'll work this out when I stop pretending
A F#m
That I could never let this go,
Em D
There's more to life than chasing ghosts,
A F#m Em D
But then hindsight's 20/20.

I wear myself out trying to find an ending,

But I'll work this out when I stop pretending

There's more to life than chasing ghosts,
A F#m Em D
But then hindsight's 20/20.
