D F#m Bm A 
Em A 



[Verso 1]
 
G 
 There used to be a time, no regrets 
A                  D 
 Say whatever fuck we feel 
G 
 No cell phone screens, no internet 
A 
 That's when shit was real 
G 
 Tanked up Corvette, Kool cigarettes 
A                       D 
 Dangerous and much too fast 
Bm             A                    Em 
  No seatbelt, high-top kick on the gas 
                         A 
We're getting outta here fast 
 


[Refrão]
 
                         G 
We're racing back to the future 
A                Bm   D 
Engines ready to roar 

We're gonna rip it up 
G                    A   D 
Like we're living in 1984 
                        G 
I've had enough of this right here right now 
A                        Bm   D 
'Cause shit was better before 

We're gonna live it up 
G                    A    D 
Like we're living in 1984

[Verso 2]
 
G 
 Boy, you better pull your head out 
A                      D 
 Of your millennial fantasy 
G 
 What might look bright on video 
A 
 Wasn't all it's cracked up to be 
G 
 The Cold War was on, John Lennon gone 
A                                D 
 We were waiting for the bomb to scream 
Bm                  A                 Em 
  While we tried to live the American dream 
                   A 
In our acid-washed jeans 
 


[Refrão]
 
                         G

Engines ready to roar 

We're gonna rip it up 
G                    A   D 
Like we're living in 1984 
                     G 
We need some of that great big music 
A                   Bm   D 
 U2 and Head on the Door 

We're gonna live it up 
G                    A    D 
Like we're living in 1984 
 


[Pós-Refrão]

  I still remember when no meant yes 

Yeah 
A 
 We had Live Aid, Wall Street excess 

Oh

Brat Pack movies and crack cocaine 
    A 
And you want it back again?
