Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
C (x2)
[Verse 1]
C
Summer went way, still the yearning stays
Em Fsus2
I play it cool with the best of them
C
I wait patiently, he’s gonna notice me
Em Fsus2 Am G/B
It’s okay, we’re the best of friends…anyway
C
I hear it in your voice, you’re smoking with your boys
Em Fsus2
I touch my phone as if it’s your face
C
I didn’t choose this town
I dream of getting out
Em Fsus2 Am
Theres just one who could make me stay…
G/B
All my days
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Gsus4 C
From sprinkler splashes, to fireplace ashes
Am Fsus2
I waited ages to see you there
Gsus4 C
I search the party of better bodies
Am Fsus2
Just to learn that you never cared
Gsus4 C
You’re on your own, kid, you always have been
[Verse 2]
C
I see the great escape, so long, Daisy May
Em Fsus2
I picked the petals, he loves me not
C
Something different bloomed, writing in my room
Em Fsus2 Am G/B
I play my songs in the parking lot, I’ll run away
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Gsus4 C
From sprinkler splashed, to fireplace ashes
Am Fsus2
I called a taxi to take me there
Gsus4 C
I search the party of better bodies
Am Fsus2
Just to learn that my dreams aren’t rare
Gsus4
You’re on your own, kid, you always have been
Fsus2 Gsus4 Am C Fsus2 Gsus4
**LONG LIVE**
[Bridge]
Fsus2 Gsus4
Hold on to spinning around
Am C
Confetti falls to the ground
Fsus2
May these memories break our fall
[Verse 3]
C Fsus2
Will you take a moment? Promise me this,
Am
That you’ll stand by me forever
Gsus4 Fsus2
But if, God forbid, fate should step in
C
And force us into a goodbye
Fsus2
If you have children someday
Am
When they point to the pictures
Gsus4 Fsus2
Please tell them my name
Fsus2
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Gsus4
Tell them how I hope they shine
**YOYOK**
[Chorus]
Fsus2 Gsus4 C
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
Am Fsus2
I gave my blood, sweat and tears for this
Gsus4 C
I hosted parties and starved my body
Am Fsus2
Like I’d be saved by a perfect kiss
Gsus4 C
The jokes weren’t funny, I took the money
Am Fsus2
My friends from home don’t know what to say
Gsus4 C
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
Am Fsus2
And I saw something they can’t take away
Gsus4 C
Cause there were pages turned, with the bridges burned
Am Fsus2
Everything you lose is a step you take
Gsus4
So make the friendship bracelets
C
Take the moment and taste it
Am Fsus2
You’ve got no reason to be afraid
Gsus4
You’re on your own, kid
Fsus2 Gsus4
Yeah, you can face this
Fsus2 Gsus4
Screaming long live
**LONG LIVE**
[Chorus]
C Fsus2
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
Am
How the kingdom lights shined
Gsus4
Just for me and you, I was screaming,
C Fsus2
“Long live all the magic we made,”
Am Gsus4
And bring on all the pretenders, I’m not afraid
C Fsus2
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
Am Gsus4
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
C Fsus2
Long, long live that look on your face
Am
And bring on all the pretenders
Fsus2
One day… we will be remembered
Summer went away
Still the yearning stays
I play it cool with the best of them
I wait patiently
He's gonna notice me
It's okay, we're the best of friends
Anyway
I hear it in your voice
You're smoking with your boys
I touch my phone as if it's your face
I didn't choose this town
I dream of getting out
There's just one who could make me stay
All my days
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I waited ages to see you there
I search the party of better bodies
Just to learn that you never cared
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
I see the great escape
So long, Daisy May
I picked the petals, he loves me not
Something different bloomed
Writing in my room
I play my songs in the parking lot
I'll run away
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I called a taxi to take me there
I search the party of better bodies
Just to learn that my dreams aren't rare
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
I hosted parties and starved my body
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money
My friends from home don't know what to say
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
And I saw something they can't take away
'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
Everything you lose is a step you take
So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it
You've got no reason to be afraid
You're on your own, kid
Yeah, you can face this
You're on your own, kid
You always have been
