Start Jamming...
[G] We burn out in the [C] dark, we are invisible stars
We are a question mark, be careful what you ask [G] for
We are broken bad, we never had a [Em] chance
We want what we don't [C] have, be careful what you ask [G] for
You will never [C] die, [G] but you're holding the [Em] sky
You found a perfect [C] god, be careful what you ask [G] for
I'm sorry we are living in the car
[E] This isn't what you wanted [C] when you [G] gave me your [F] heart
[G] I'm sorry I got lazy and mean
[Em] This isn't what you wanted [G] when you married me
Life looks better when you [C] waste away the day
[Em] Life looks better [C] when you make it all again
[G] Life looks better [C] when you drink away the pain
[Em] Life looks better [C] when you [D] look away
[G] We burn out in the dark, we are invisible stars
We [C] are a question mark, be careful what you [G] ask for
We are broken bad, we never had a [Em] chance
We want what we don't [C] have, be careful what you ask [G] for
I know you're getting mad at [C] me
[E] And your car gets denied [C] at the market [G] down the street
I know that you wanna [C] leave
[E] Yeah, this [G] isn't what you wanted when you married me
Life looks better when you [C] waste away the day
[Em] Life looks better [C] when you make it all again
[G] Life looks better [C] when you drink away the pain
[Em] Life looks better [C] when you [D] look away
[G] We burn out in the dark, we are invisible [Em] stars
[C] We are a question mark, be careful what you ask [G] for
We are broken [C] bad, we never had a [Em] chance
We want what we don't [C] have, be careful what you ask [Am] for
You wanna [C] believe the world can [G] be perfect
That [D] anyone can be [Am] with you
That good is [C] always better than bad
That's when it all [G] looks right
[C] Just when you're thinking [G] everything is gonna [C] be alright
[G]
[C] Just when you're thinking [G] everything is gonna [C] be alright
We [G] burn out in the dark, we are invisible stars
We are a question mark, be [C] careful what you ask [G] for
No, this [C] isn't what you asked [Em] for
This isn't what I asked [C] for
[G]
In [C] the city,
[Em] this isn't what I asked [C] for
[G]
Life looks [C] [Em] better when you [C] look the [G] other way
[C] [Em] Baby, [C] look [G] away
[C] Do [Em] yourself a favor, [C] look the other [G] way
