E
When I met you, you were on your back.
G D
We still spend most afternoons like that,
A
But not for long.
E
I find myself enjoying you,
G
But you play these reckless games
D
You'll never lose
A
As long as I'm around.
E
Do you want to tie me up?
G D
Do you want to tie me down?
A
Go ahead and do it now.
E G D A
So far, so good, let it roll, let it ride, ride.
E G D A
So far, so good, let us fall, let us fight, fight.
G C
It's no fun on the sidelines.

E
We both know I'm too young for you,
G
And when you fake a laugh behind the wheel,
D A
I know where this road is heading to.
E
With a sunken lie I lay in bed,
G
But I will live to be twenty-three.
D A
And you'll see just how clever I can be...
E
Do you want to tie me up?
G D
Do you want to tie me down?
A
Go ahead and do it now.
E G D A
So far, so good, let it roll, let it ride, ride.
E G D A
So far, so good, let us fall, let us fight, fight.
G C
It's no fun on the sidelines.
E G D A
Driving backwards, wasting time.
E G D A
Young love is ruthless, so learn to fly.
E
You taught me things I can't forget.
G
Positions that I don't regret.
D A
I can't walk away, and I can't shake the taste.
E
Do you want to tie me up?
G D
Do you want to tie me down?
A
Go ahead and do it now.

G A D
Don't write a word, cuz I won't reply.
This last part gets a little tricky for one guitar... you can continue with the riff
the last line instead. Listen to the song before you try to play this.
