Introdução:
D E
Now I ain?t saying that this is fine,
D E
But life means more than 9 to 5 and tripping up over your mind.
D E
Dead roses and spilled wine,
D E
They are the only signs that we are counting down the miles.
D E D E
Until we meet, our next enjoyable defeat.
D E
Plastic people with empty lives,
D
They come but leave their hearts behind,
E
And leave with self-adoring eyes, ooh.
Chorus
A E F#m D
I know that we?re shooting for stars,

A E F#m D
?Cause we?re low lives with high hopes.
A E D E D E
Low lives, with high hopes

Why do we keep on promising each day away like it?s a whim?
E
This ain?t a game that we can win.
D E D E
This life is touch and go, but this is something we chose.
D E
I?ll pick this thorn out of my head,
D E
That we?d be better off instead, chasing moons to meet our ends, ooh.

D A D E
Underneath my skin I got a fever setting in,

Living a life of it?s own, maybe I should let it in.

D A E
I won't follow the guide
