The wasted years, the wasted youth
      Dm     C       F       Bb
The pretty lies, the ugly truth
         Dm      C         F        Bb
And the day has come where i have died

I want back my virginity so i can feel infinity

I wanna drink until i ache
   F     A      Dm    Gm
I wanna make a big mistake

   Dm      C      F     Bb
I wish i didnʼt really kiss
      Dm      C      F     Bb
The mirror when iʼm on my own
    Dm        C    F     Bb
Oh god! iʼm gonna die alone
Dm    C       F          Bb
Adolescence didnʼt make sense
   Dm      C     F      Bb
A little loss of innocence
     Dm    C       F       Bb
The ugly years of being a fool
