G                             D
What if, what if we run away? What if, what if we left today?
          Em                        C
What if we say goodbye to safe and sound?
              G                                    D
And what if, what if we're hard to find? What if, what if we lost our mind?
           Em                         C
What if we were to fall behind, never found.


[Chorus]
                       Em
But you don't wanna be high like me
                     D
Never really knowing why like me
                     Cadd9                           G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
                        Em
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
                      D
Never knowing who to trust like this
                   Cadd9
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
 G
Stuck up on that stage singing


[Verse]
 G                         Em                         C
My youth, my youth is yours. Trippin' on skies, sippin' waterfalls.
  G         Am              Em                   C
My youth, my youth is yours. Run away now, and forevermore.
  G                             D
My youth, my youth is yours. The truth's so loud you can't ignore,
  Em                  C
My youth, my youth, my youth, my youth is yours.


Em     D            Cadd9      G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
         Em     D            Cadd9        G
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs

G D Cadd9


[Verse]
            Em          D
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
     Cadd9
I get along with old timers
C                               G
Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
                   Em
And I can't keep a girl, no
         D
Cause as soon as the sun comes up
  Cadd9                C
I cut em all loose and work's my excuse
        G
But the truth is I can't open up


[Chorus]
                       Em
But you don't wanna be high like me
                     D
Never really knowing why like me
                     Cadd9              G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
                         Em
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
                     D
Never knowing who to trust like this
                   Cadd9
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
  G                         Em                         C
My youth, my youth is yours. Trippin' on skies, sippin' waterfalls.
  G         Am              Em                   C
My youth, my youth is yours. Run away now, and forevermore.
  G                             D
My youth, my youth is yours. The truth's so loud you can't ignore,
  Em                  C
My youth, my youth, my youth, my youth is yours.


Em     D            Cadd9      G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
         Em     D            Cadd9        G
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs

G D Cadd9


[Chorus]
                      Em
But you don't wanna be high like me
                     D
Never really knowing why like me
                    Cadd9                                     G
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
Em     D           Cadd9         G
All I know are sad songs  sad songs
         Em     D           Cadd9         G
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
Em     D           Cadd9         G
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
         Em     D           Cadd9         G
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
