days when
     Cm                     G
We'd fight, we'd fight 'til I would give in
 C            F
Yeah, perfect disasters
        Cm                         G
We were reaching, reaching for the rafters

    C       F
hey, and on most of the days we were searching for ways

To get up and get out of the town that we were raised, yeah, cause we were done
    C               F
I remember, we were sleeping in cars

We were searching for OZ

We were burning cigars
          Cm                     G
With white plastics tips 'til we saw the sun

and we said crazy things like

[chorus]
F
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Cm                   G               C
Just because they're younger days
F
I don't know what's 'round the corner
                 Cm                G
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
                   F
back when we were kids
Cm             G
Swore we would never die
C               F
You and me were kids
Cm               G
Swear that we’ll never die

[Verse 2]
F
Lights down
       Cm                              G

  C           F
Yeah, perfect disasters
             Cm                          G
Yeah we were swinging, swinging from the rafters

[Pre-chorus]
   C         F
hey, we were dancing in cars

We were looking for ours

We were naming the stars

        Cm                   G
after people we knew 'til we had to go

and we were saying things like

[chorus]
F
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Cm                   G              C
Just because they're younger days
F
I don't know what's 'round the corner
                 Cm                G
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
                  F
back when we were kids
Cm             G
Swore we would never die
C               F
You and me were kids
Cm               G
Swear that we’ll never die

[bridge]
F
  Nights when we kept dancing
Fm
  changing all our plans and
Cm                    G
  Making every day a holiday
C
  feel the years start burning
Fm
  city lights they're turning
Cm                      G
  Something 'bout this feels the same

[chorus]
                  F
back when we were kids
Cm             G
Swore we would never die
C               F
You and me were kids
Cm               G
Swear that we’ll never die
F
I refuse to look back thinking days were better
Cm                   G              C
Just because they're younger days

I don't know what's 'round the corner
                 Cm                G
Way I feel right now I swear we'll never change
