Here  in this diary,
I  write you visions  of my summer.
 It was the best  I ever had.
 There were choruses  and sing-alongs,
 and that  unspoken feeling.
 Of knowing  that right now  is all that matters.
All  the nights  we stayed up talking
 and listening  to 80's  songs;
 quoting lines  from all those movies that we  love.
It  still brings  a smile  to my face.
I  guess when it comes down  to it...
Being  grown up  isn't half  as fun as growing  up
These  are the best  days of our lives.
The  only thing that matters
 is just following  your heart
 and eventually  you'll finally  get it right.
Breaking  into hotel swimming  pools,
 and wreaking havoc  on our world.
 Hanging out  at truck stops just  to pass the time.
 The black  top's  singing me to sleep.
Lighting  fireworks in parking  lots,
 illuminate the blackest  nights.
 Cherry cokes  under this moonlight  summer sky.
2015  Riverside,  it's time to say,  'goodbye.'
 Get  on the bus,  it's time to go.
Being  grown up  isn't half  as fun as growing  up
These  are the best  days of our lives.
The  only thing that matters
 is just following  your heart
 and eventually  you'll finally  get it right.
 ( here in between the choruses i think it hujst follows the same chord progressio
 but the timing sounds odd, i just play the bass notes when doing this but on the
 acoustic)
Being  grown up  isn't half  as fun as growing  up
These  are the best  days of our lives.
The  only thing that matters
 is just following  your heart
 and eventually  you'll finally  get it right.
Being  grown up  isn't half  as fun as growing  up
These  are the best  days of our lives.
The  only thing that matters
 is just following  your heart
 and eventually  you'll finally  get it right.
 Theres some bits in this last chorus where theres more emphasis, just play around,
 i think its pretty fun to play.
 Please rate this- go on, whats the worst that could happen?.............
