[Intro]
 C
(Pick yourself up, kid, ooh)
 Fmaj7
(Pick yourself up, kid, ooh)

[Verse 1]
C
  Pick yourself up, kid
                 Fmaj7
I can't bare the weight

Pick your mood up, friend
                  C
We don't have the time

When you find someone
              Fmaj7
We don't run away

Pick yourself up, kid

[Verse 2]
C
  All those books in your head
                        Fmaj7
Is that all this really was?

Just a role you played
                 C
You could hide behind

Is it what you want?
                  Fmaj7
To bury yourself away

Before your time goes?

[Pre-Chorus]
               Am   C    G        Fmaj7
I don't want a love that holds us back
               Am   C    G       Fmaj7
I don't want a life that I can't have

[Chorus]
       C
'Cause people need a melody to open their eyes
                                   Fmaj7
Like a key to a memory frozen in time
C
Holding onto everything, you're stuck in the past
                                          Fmaj7
Boy, when you gonna learn the world moves fast?

[Verse 3]
C
  So pick yourself up, kid
                 Fmaj7
I can't bare the weight

Let the light back in
                           C
'Cause you've been walkin' blind

Now it's all on you
                 Fmaj7
Don't you let it fade

Before your time goes

[Pre-Chorus]
               Am   C    G        Fmaj7
I don't want a love that holds us back
               Am   C    G       Fmaj7
I don't want a life that I can't have

[Chorus]
       C
'Cause people need a melody to open their eyes
                                   Fmaj7
Like a key to a memory frozen in time
C
Holding onto everything, you're stuck in the past
                                          Fmaj7
Boy, when you gonna learn the world moves fast?

The world moves

  Young and wild, remember?
Am                C
  When we were friends, remember?
Fmaj7           C
  When we were lovers, it's

  Not too late, it was
Fmaj7     Dm
  Never too late
