Most of the lyrics in the post-chorus are syncopated (fall between the beats),
which is why the chords look out of line. You might want to listen to the song
to hear the timing.

Ohhhhhh ohhhhhhhhh
BbCDm
Yeah-ooooooooooooooooh
VERSE 1
Bb
We text as we eat
C
As we listen to the freaks
Dm
As we wait for the right of way
Bb
We text as we talk
C
We're running as we walk
Dm
Cos we surf our little souls away
Bb
We smoke as we choke
C
As we sink another Coke
Dm
And we grin when it blows our mind
Bb
We skate as we date
C
As we slowly suffocate
Dm
We're running, we're running, we're running
Gm
Out of time
CHORUS
Am
My life got cold
Dm
It happened many years ago
GmCDm
When Summer slipped away
GmAm
So chill now whoa
Dm
We've gotten many years to go
BbCDm
So take it day by day
POST-CHORUS
Gm
And long ago
Am
I lost my soul
Dm
To some forgotten dream and
GmC
How was I supposed to know
Dm
It wasn't what it seemed
GmAm
And even though the last hello
Dm
Has left me on the floor
BbCDm
I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore
VERSE 2
Bb
We spend as we lend
C
Cos we're happy to pretend
Dm
Everything's gonna be OK
Bb
We shake as we break
C
Never give until we take
Dm
And we hate when we have to pay
Bb
We flirt while we work
C
To forget about the hurt
Dm
And the trash that we left behind
Bb
We sink as we swim
C
The ice is wearing thin
Dm
We're running, we're running, we're running
Gm
Out of time
CHORUS
Am
My life got cold
Dm
It happened many years ago
GmCDm
When Summer slipped away
GmAm
So chill now whoa
Dm
We've gotten many years to go
BbCDm
So take it day by day
POST-CHORUS
Gm
And long ago
Am
I lost my soul
Dm
To some forgotten dream and

Has left me on the floor
BbCDm
I don't believe in Romeos or heroes anymore
