[Verse]
[B]I wish my life was like a John Hughes movi[B/Bb]e
[B]Good times and easy on the dark [B/Bb]side
[B]I wish my life was like a John Hughes movi[B/Bb]e
[B]Bright lights, always looking for a better [B/Bb]life[B]
N.C.
We were looking for each other
In the bars on the [B]west side[Ebm][E][B/Bb][B]
N.C.
We were looking for the summer
When it's cold outs[B]ide[Ebm][E]
This is gonna be g[B]ood
[Chorus]
[B]Life is coming[Ebm] up a[E]ces[B/Bb][B]
Everything is coming[Ebm] up a[E]ces
We f[B/Bb]ound a w[B]ay to make money [Ebm]out of
[E]Broken boys and diffi[B/Bb]cult g[B]irls - Reality is wonderful
[G#m]We were waking[Ebm] up w[E]aiting
For the world t[B/Bb]o begi[B]n - Things are so much better now
[G#m]I have a good reason to
[E]Want to get wasted ag[B]ain[Ebm][E]
[Verse]
We were s[B]lumming for a buzz
[Ebm]In a pl[E]ace that used to[B/Bb] be the o[B]ld school[Ebm][E]
[B/Bb]We were h[B]appy for the pain of b[Ebm]eing
[E]Lame enough to want to [B/Bb]look c[B]ool
I r[Ebm]eally t[E]hink that this is going to be good
[Chorus]
[B]Life is coming[Ebm] up a[E]ces[B/Bb][B]
Everything is coming[Ebm] up a[E]ces
[B/Bb]We can m[B]ake a good living [Ebm]out
Of b[E]roken lives and empty h[B/Bb]earts[B]
[B]Ain't this entertaining watching people fall apart
[G#m]We were wasting time waiting
For the world to be[B]gin - things are so much better now
I [G#m]have a good reason to
Want to get wasted ag[B]ain
[Bridge]
[B]Black hole
[C#m]white trash
There i[A]sn't any limit to the s[E]hame these people have
[B]Good people do
[C#m]Bad things
Have [A]sex with an ex in the b[E]athroom on their wedding day
[B]Pretty faces with
[C#m]no soul
And [A]now you're in the way
And nob[E]ody really wants to know
[B]Big noise and a [C#m]bright light
[A]Everybody needs a chance to
[E]Win themselves a better life
[Outro]
[B]Everybody wants a better [B/Bb]life[B]
