Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
She's in love and the world gets blurry
She makes mistakes and she's in no hurry to grow up
'Cause grownups they don't understand her
Well it's a big, big world out there
But she's not scared, she thinks that nobody cares about her problems
And she's probably right
But it's alright
You'll be fine
If you just stay with me
Whoa oh, whoa oh
We get one step closer but we're still so far away
Whoa oh, whoa oh
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today
She finds hope in the strangest places
She reads her books and she knows the faces of everyone
That ever said she's alone
She knows every word to the saddest songs
And she sings along, though her friends all tell her that she can't sing
But it's alright
You'll be fine
If you just listen to me
Whoa oh, whoa oh
We get one step closer but we're still so far away
Whoa oh, whoa oh
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today
She's eighteen
Much too young to know what a kiss like that would mean
But her lips, they were no stranger to the touch
And she liked it way too much
She never listened to a word her daddy told her
She finds company with her cigarettes
And feels alone when the sunsets
And please
Don't let this be love
How can it be enough?
This college town is too small for both of us
So we're running away
We'll pack our bags and take the first train
And we're getting the hell out of here
This place could burn for all we care
This place could burn for all we care
Hold me till then
This place could burn for all we care
Hold me till then
Whoa oh, whoa oh
We get one step closer but we're still so far away
Whoa oh, whoa oh
It's too bad empty bottles couldn't save her life today
The End
