Chords:  Dm  F  C  G


[Intro]
Dm F C G  x4


[Verse]
         Dm
They had tongues like guns
      F
I had nowhere to run
           C                  G
Yeah, this world can get so lonely
          Dm
Yeah, the paper and pen
        F
Were my two best friends
           C                G
'Cause the sad songs understood me
      Dm      F                   C               G
The irony and all my dreams were keeping me from sleeping
               Dm                     F
'Cause there's something so fun being young and being dumb
              C             G
'Cause you're not afraid of feeling


[Pre-chorus]
      Dm                   F                         C                       G
Yeah, all of my demons are kicking and screaming but I'll never leave them behind
      Dm                  F                           C                   G
Yeah, maybe I'm crazy but don't try to save me 'cause I've never felt so alive


[Chorus]
      Dm                              F
Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
                     C                    G
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)
      Dm                           F
Yeah, when they gotcha down, down, down
                    C                    G
Gotta make your own luck (own luck), own luck (own luck)
    Dm
So, tell me I'm outta my mind
          F
Give me a sign
Take it one step at a time
C
I know it's gonna be fine
          G
Open your eyes shut up and give it a try
      Dm                              F
Yeah, when they knock you down, down, down
                     C                    G
Kid, you gotta stand up (stand up), stand up (stand up)
Everybody go
Dm   F
Oh.......
C    G
Oh.......
Dm   F
Oh.......
C    G
Oh.......


[Verse]
         Dm
They had eyes like knives
      F
I had nowhere to hide
           C                 G
Yeah, this world can cut you open
            Dm
But all the scars they prove
       F
That I fought my way through
      C               G
So, I always keep 'em showing
       Dm        F
'Cause sanity is suicide
    C             G
And crazy are the legends
               Dm
But, yeah, I'd rather have fun
      F
Being young and being dumb
        C                G
Than be saved a spot in heaven


[Pre-chorus]
      Dm                   F                         C                       G

Yeah, maybe I'm crazy but don't try to save me 'cause I've never felt so alive
