[E] I never [B]
wanted to [C#m] die old, but it's too [A] late now, my heart has grown so [E] cold, and the cops
I [B] leave behind, they ain't gonna [C#m] be no pretty [A] boys, it's six [E] seconds.

So [A] tonight, I'll sit up here, [E]
with these three [B] lights, and these [C#m] seventeen beers,
take home the [A] page, of a teenage [E] diary, underneath these [B] shitty stars, that now are [A] seventeen.
