Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Here comes  the lipgloss,
 the brand name of their age
 Roomates just paint love,
 eye shadow turns to pink
 Boys have a crush on the
 teenage da - da girls
 tonight with shaking hands
 their red ties
 Young people dance
undressed
with  tears hidden in  their eyes
 and with fear  they pretend  to embrace
 drunken harms  at  night
‘You  can take me in  your hands’  they say
Kissin’  with lines  of escape  in mouth
Comin’  home late at  late night  to cry  in front of  their mirrors
 ->  ->  like before ->  ->  ->  at end of verse.
 Bitter sweet girls have a secret wish
 Lonely boys have not the heart to phone
 Love inside won’t let them back to sleep
 They have lost control
 Take a second to say goodbye and then
 please don’t bite your lips when you walk alone
 Youth, time is coming
Because  of  you tonight
 I feel life, I choose pain
 I give up nostalgia
 Now help me pray for you
Don’t  cry for  yesterday
 Stay wild another time
 Carry on this mortal coil
