[Verse]
C
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
F
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation that has nothing to say
F G
How'd you make your way to me?
G F
Let's say you made a deal with me
C
And I got your name and your home address
G F
And you're all trashed up with your big red belt
C
I would almost say that you might need help
G F
I could drop you off at the next red light
C
If it don't make sense or it don't feel right
G F C
All the girls could never make me love them the way I love you
C
Can't you see the sky is not the limit no more?
I can see the elevator crashed the floor
F
I can still see yesterday sailing away
Seven billion people who got nothing to say
[Verse]
F G
Are you coming on to me?
G F
I saw your face then I heard that song
C
It was so inviting it hurt my bones
G F
Well it looks like you but your eyes are gray
C
And your hair is gone but your mind's okay
G F
Yes I like your smile but your forehead's cold
C
I don't want you to be afraid and go
G F
I would cheat and lie and steal now I'll stay at home and kneel
C
for you
C
I was waiting
F C
For my baby, to arrive
G
Right by my side
Em
Oh please
Dm
Leave me alone tonight
Em , G
Forget the past
[Verse]
C
Two can be complete without the rest of the world
Oh you know I said it just to get you to laugh
F
Do it for the people that have died for your sake
An entire generation of entertainers to blame
C G
The light is red
C G
The camera's on.
G F C
Get yourself a lawyer and a gun.
G F
Hate your friend's new friends like
C
everyone.
[Outro]
G F C
Childhood's end can be so competitive,

Oh sky's not the limit and your never
