A#m                                        F#
When we were young the future was so bright Woah-oh!
                                 C#
The old neighborhood was so alive Woah-oh!
                                      G#

How can one little street

Swallow so many lives

        A#m
Chances thrown
          F#
Nothing's free
        C#               G#
Longing for what used to be
           A#m
Still it's hard
        F#
Hard to see
        C#               G#
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job

Just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot

A#m                  F#
Jay committed suicide Woah-oh!
                     
Brandon OD'd and died Woah-oh!

What the hell is going on

cruelest dream, reality

        A#m
Chances thrown
