[Verse 1]
E
We shed tears for movie scenes
E
No real fears, fake feelings
C#m E
It's a sentimental wasteland
E
We're young enough to lose teeth
E
But not old enough for enemies
C#m E
Still steering with both hands
[Chorus]
A
We were just kids living young and naïve
E
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
A E
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
A
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
E
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A E
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones, oh
[Verse 2]
E
The bitter taste of nicotine
E
Still alive on my coat and jeans
C#m
But you were the light that I saw standing in front of the sun
E (F#m) (E/G#)
You were the girl on the hill singing all night, all night
[Chorus]
A
We were just kids living young and naïve
E
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
A E
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
A
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
E
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A E
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones
[Refrain]
A
Maybe never be found
C#m
Like a drop in the ocean
A
If we ever grow up
N.C.
E E C#m E
[Bridge]
E
Sugar drunk high
E
Sugar drunk high
C#m
Sugar drunk high
E
We were living on a
E
Sugar drunk high
E
Sugar drunk high
C#m
Sugar drunk high
E
Sugar drunk high
[Chorus]
A
We were just kids living young and naïve
E
Running round streets like the King and the Queen
A E
Gas light flicker in your eye, what are hopeless dreams?
A
Staying out waiting 'til they call off the search
E
Chewing gum, cherry coke until our brains burned
A E
A sugar drunk high, we were the only ones
[Refrain]
A
Maybe never be found
C#m
Like a drop in the ocean
A
If we ever grow up
E
