[Verse 1]
B5
Best of luck, don't run amok
B5
We all get tongue tied
B5
Keep your chin up, don't get accustomed
B5
You're allowed to backslide

One and only, God, it's lonely here
Am G
On the other side of love

Teenage story in its glory
Am G
God, it's never quite enough
[Chorus]

And I will turn those screams to rhymes
G
And I'll be cashing in each time
