[E]
Paper bags and plastic hearts, our belongings in shopping carts.
[C#m] It's goodbye, [A] but we got one more [E] night.
Let's get drunk and ride around, [B] and make peace with an [E] empty town.
[A] We can make it right.
[C#m]
We do what we [A] do.
Yesterday, [E] make it go.
[B] Each day, we want.
[C#m] [A] I say, they don't [E] know us anyway.
[F#] Watch it burn, [G#m] like dynamite.
[A] Cause we are finally [B] free, [Dm]
[A] tonight.
[E]
[A] Tonight we'll change our [E] lives.
It's so good to be by your side.
[C#m] We'll cry, [A] we won't give up the [E] fight.
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs.
And [B] they'll think it's just cause [E] we're young.
[A] And we'll feel so alive.
[C#m]
[A] Yesterday, [E] make it go.
[B] Each day, we want.
[C#m] I [A] say, they don't [E] know us anyway.
Watch [F#] it burn, [G#m] like dynamite.
[A] Cause we are finally [B] free, [E]
tonight.
The hours that we're left behind.
The [F#] answers that [B] we'll never find.
They don't mean a thing, [C#m] tonight.
[A] [E] [B]
[C#m] [A] [E] [B] Throw [E] it away.
Forget yesterday.
We'll make the great escape.
[C#m] We won't hear a word they [E] say.
They don't know us [B] anyway.
[C#m]
Forget [A] [E]
[B] yesterday.
We won't [C#m] hear a word they [A] say.
They don't [E] know us anyway.
[C#m] Forget [A] yesterday.
[E] Forget [B] yesterday.
We won't hear [C#m] a word they [A] say.
They don't know [E] us [B] anyway.
Watch [F#] it burn, like [G#m] dynamite.
[A] Cause we are finally [B] free, [E] tonight.
[Em]
