Don't  believe everything happiness  says
Nothing  feels better than hiding  these days
 We bury  our fears  in the drinks,  in these tears
 For the days  we believed  we could fly
Call  up your brothers and sisters  and friends
 We'll go back  to the place where the night  never ends
 We'll remember  the fires,  the burning  car tires
 Boy how  in the hell  did we get here?
 So why  don't you meet me, down  behind the old school
 We'll waste  away the weekend, with perfect  regard  for how
Cavalier  we used to be, that beautiful  insanity
 The apathy  surrounding me
Don't  close your eyes  or we'll fade.......  away
Over  and over and over  again
 We sat down  for a minute, grew up  into men
 Now we're putting  out fires  and changing  car tires
 Man how  in hell  did we get here?
 So why  don't you meet me, down  behind the old school
 We'll waste  away the weekend, with  perfect regard  for how
Cavalier  we used to be, that beautiful  insanity
 The apathy  surrounding me
Don't  close your eyes  or we'll
Fade  away  this time
 And we'll never  get back what we
Gave  away,  when we still  have that fire in our eyes
Don't  believe everything happiness  says
Nothings  as real as our old reckless  ways
 When we drink  by the fires
 The burning  car tires
 Bad girls  and good liars
 The dreams  we'd conspire
 The days  we went crazy
 The nights  wild and hazy
 Man how  in the hell  did we get here?
 So why  don't you meet me, down  behind the old school
 We'll waste  away the weekend, with perfect  regard  for how
Cavalier  we used to be, that beautiful  insanity
 The apathy's  surrounding me
Don't  close your eyes  or we'll fade x2

[Abm]    [F#]    [E]    [F#]

[B]Don't believe everything [E5]happiness says

[B]Nothing feels better than [E5]hiding these days

We [B]bury our [E5]fears in the [B]drinks, in these [E5]tears

For the [Abm]days we be[F#]lieved we could [E]fly      [F#]

[B]Call up your brothers and [E5]sisters and friends

We'll go [B]back to the place where the [E5]night never ends

We'll re[B]member the [E5]fires, the [B]burning car [E5]tires

Boy [Abm]how in the [F#]hell did we get [E]here?       [F#]

So [B]why don't you meet me, [E5]down behind the old school

We'll [B]waste away the weekend, with [Abm]perfect re[F#]gard for how

[B]Cavalier we used to be, that [E5]beautiful insanity

The [B]apathy surrounding me

[Abm]Don't close your [F#]eyes or we'll [B]fade....... a[E5]way

[B]Over and over and [E5]over again

We sat [B]down for a minute, grew [E5]up into men

Now we're [B]putting out [E5]fires and [B]changing car [E5]tires

Man [Abm]how in [F#]hell did we get [E]here?        [F#]

So [B]why don't you meet me, [E5]down behind the old school

We'll [B]waste away the weekend, [Abm]with perfect re[F#]gard for how

[B]Cavalier we used to be, that [E5]beautiful insanity

The [B]apathy surrounding me

[Abm]Don't close your [F#]eyes or we'll

[A]Fade a[E]way this [B]time

And we'll [Abm]never get back what we

[A]Gave a[E]way, when we [F#]still have that fire in our eyes

[B]Don't believe everything [E5]happiness says

[B]Nothings as real as our old [E5]reckless ways

When we [B]drink by the [E5]fires

The [B]burning car [E5]tires

Bad [B]girls and good [E5]liars

The [B]dreams we'd [E5]conspire

The [Abm]days we went [F#]crazy

The [B]nights wild and [E5]hazy

Man [Abm]how in the [F#]hell did we get [E]here?          [F#]

So [B]why don't you meet me, [E5]down behind the old school

We'll [B]waste away the weekend, with [Abm]perfect re[F#]gard for how

[B]Cavalier we used to be, that [E5]beautiful insanity

The [B]apathy's surrounding me

[Abm]Don't close your [F#]eyes or we'll fade   x2
