Intro: D  A  Bm  G

Verso 1:
   D
Im leaving tonight
Down the same dirt road
A
A million times
                            Bm
Ive driven just to get home
                         G
And I aint ever looking back
For nothing

D
Headed for the coast
Looking for the high life
A
Everybody knows
                            Bm
Its nothing but a good time
                         G
And I sold everything I had
For something
Em              G
I cant seem to find

Refrão:
D                                 A
 So this is the life they talked about
                                Bm
And this is the I cant live without
                            G
When the real world crashes down
                        D
Oh if they could see me now
                                 A
When all the dreams are all your own
                        Bm
Turn to nightmares all alone
                               G
It hits you right between the eyes
            D     A
This is the life
             Bm
This is the life
    G
ohohoh

Verso 2:
D
These four walls feel more like a prison
  A
Instead of pure highs
                          Bm
I couldnt wait to live in
                           G
So I just drink myself to sleep

Again

  D
I cant escape my mind

This aint like a movie
    A
Its getting hard to hide
                    Bm
More its doin to me
                            G
I dont know how long I can keep

From going
Em             G
Crazy all the time

So this is the I cant live without
                            G
When the real world crashes down
                        D
Oh if they could see me now
                                 A
When all the dreams are all your own
                        Bm
Turn to nightmares all alone
                               G
It hits you right between the eyes
            D     A    Bm    G
This is the life

Ponte:
Bm
   Nothings ever what it seems
A
   Maybe that grass aint so green
Bm                      G
   Nothings ever out of reach

When youre seventeen
