[Verse 1]
C E Am
We were kids, we played with matches

Well we grew up, we started bands

When we started making fans

We blew off college, toured the country in a van

Sometimes at the grocery store, the people say they knew me back when

We were teenage rock stars

Made our hometown proud

When we were teenage rock stars
F Fm
We taught ourselves to play
C
And we played loud

[Verse 2]

We signed a deal and made some records

Sold out shows and married young
C E Am
The money came, we started fighting
F Fm C G
We partied hard, and had our fun

[Bridge 2]
G Am D
We blew off deadlines and forgot to call our friends
F Fm
Sometimes at the shopping mall, the people say they knew me back when

We were teenage rock stars

I watch my daughter in the yard
C E Am
I think about those days in high school
F Fm C G
My best friend playing his guitar

[Bridge 3]
G Am D
In my parents' living room, where all of this began
F Fm n.c.
And when I leave the shows these days, the people say they knew me back when

[Chorus 3]
C E Am
We were teenage rock stars
F Fm C G
So young and so strung out
C E Am
When we were teenage rock stars
F Fm
We taught ourselves to play, we took the stage
C
And we played loud
