A really great song, alot of lyrics, so I will not put chords on top of the lyrics, but the lyrics up according to chord progression. The Am chord in the verses go twice as as the G and Em chords; same with the Dm chord, Am and G chords in the chorus. Please rate and any suggestions are welcomed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Am - 002210 G - 320003 Em - 022000 Dm - 000231 F - 133211 Verse 1 (Am, Am, G, Em) -------- Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun With a lighter and some hairspray Smoking in the girls' room Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some Now we look back and see that she didn't know how We never thought that we'd get caught up Stuck in the teenage waste Chorus ------ Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we explode Verse 2 (Am, Am, G, Em) ------- Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart Rolling around in them to see if you would Get prickled slip the acid on your tongue rooftop mall parkade We couldn't get enough Then count the stars and the ten million woes Just you and the universe judging each other We never knew that we'd get caught up Stuck in the teenage waste Chorus ------ Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we let go Verse 3 (Am, Am, G, Em) ------- It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break Such a good, good story to tell You bully, you break, you bully, you break You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake Verse 4 (F, F, G Em) ------- You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning And it's wild We never thought that we'd get caught up Stuck in the teenage waste Chorus ------ Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we explode Dm Dm Am G As we let go Dm We're counting the stars Dm We're counting the stars Am G We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far Dm Dm We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars Am G We're not very far, we're not very far Dm Dm And it's you and me in the open air Am G It's truth or dare, we don't care Dm Dm We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars, Am we're counting the stars, G Dm we're counting the stars
