Am Am

[Verse 1]
Am                                     F       Dm
 There's nothin' more beautiful than a distant star
              Dm                     Am
Proof of our ignorance, proof of how small we are (We are)
Am                                       F          Dm
 Remember gettin' high on the hood of my broke-down car
             Dm              Am            Dm
Remember how innocent we no longer are (No longer are)


[Chorus]
Am                      F
We don't know why we're here
          Dm
But we're not here for long
      Am
We're not here for long (We're not here for long)
  Am               F
Surrounded by souvenirs
     Dm
From days that are gone
      Am
As we bravely carry on (Carry on)


[Verse 2]
Am                                         F
 We like the words "love" and "trust" and "invincible"
             Dm
And so trust falls apart
               Am
And love turns miserable
        Dm
And the light disappears
    F
The only thing clear

The only thing clear is


[Chorus]
Am                      F
We don't know why we're here
          Dm
But we're not here for long
  Am
Pretend nothing's wrong (Pretend nothing's wrong)
  Am               F
Surrounded by souvenirs
     Dm
From days that are gone
     Am
But still we carry on


[Post-Chorus]
Dm
Woah-oh-oh
Am
Woah-oh-oh
F       E
Woah-oh-oh


[Bridge]
Am                           F
 We all need a memory we can hold onto
               Dm
At least a few souvenirs
   Am
To show some proof


[Chorus]
Am                      F
We don't know why we're here
          Dm
But we're not here for long
   Am
Pretend nothing's wrong
  Am                F
Surrounded by souvenirs
     Dm
From days that are gone
      Am
As we barely carry on (As we barely carry on)
