[Intro ]
F  C  Am  G 



[Verso 1]
 
F                     C 
When we were fourteen we went to the movies 
Am                               G 
I looked at the screen, told you that could be you and me 
    F                           C 
The girls looking past you, the boys looking through me 
Am              G 
They've got no idea that we're gonna be 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
    F                          C 
Breaking down the walls and running for the hills 
         Am                 G 
We'll be superstars just burning dollar bills 
      F                            C 
I did everything I told you that I would one day 
        Am 
This is all that we ever wanted 
        N.C. 
But the look on your face says 
 


[Refrão]
 
F               C 
Take me back to what we found 
  Am               G 
Before we burn our castle down 
F                  C 
King and queen, we ran this town 
     Am            G               F  C 
When all we had to give were paper crowns 
Am  G   F  C 
Crowns, crowns 
      Am  G 
Paper crowns

F                          C 
Dropped out of class and I moved to the city 
     Am                    G 
I'll make just enough to afford you a wedding ring 
  F                           C 
I said, "I'll be back and I'm taking you with me" 
Am                      G 
Just you wait, we're as young as we'll ever be 
 


[Pré-Refrão]
 
    F                          C 
Breaking down the walls and running for the hills 
         Am                 G 
We'll be superstars just burning dollar bills 
      F                            C 
I did everything I told you that I would one day 
        Am 
This is all that we ever wanted 
        N.C. 
But the look on your face says

[Ponte]
 
F                   C              Am 
All I wanted was to give you the world 
G 
I lost myself in the lights 
F                   C              Am 
All I wanted was to give you the world 
        G 
I wanna turn back the time and just
