[C] Assuming I [Dm]know that people around are moving [F]to downtown
They're learning [G]to get down. [C]woah

I'm glad that they cut their [G]tears, 'cause I'm [G]over that
[C]Change can [Dm]run around your head, [Am]kill your thoughts instead
Leaving you [F]spinning around and [G]all out of control
[C]And lately it's [Dm]amazing, I'm not letting it [Am]phase me
[F]But I'm feeling alive [G]tonight
[F]Will you let me [G]shine?

And you ran [G]so fast
[C]You stayed the same, oh [Am]melody, i hope that you [F]care
[F]You care, [G]you care, you care
[F]Girls on the [G]west coast, [Am]sing it like you used to
[F]Boys on the [G]east coast, [Am]scream with some heart
[C]Six years, and i'm [Dm]learning about the darker side
[F]I'm getting a feel for the faster life, [G]I took sides
[C]Long nights and the [Dm]drives we made through
[F]Oh what I did for you, [G]well it took some time
[F]Can I live [G]my dream?
[C]You spelled my name, when [Am]I was young, I need you right [F]there

[Dm]And I'll never [F]see the world without you
[C]And I'm all about how it's gonna be
[G]And I'm all about how it's gonna be
[Dm]You opened [F]up the world around me, [G]me
[Am]I couldn't have made it through, [C]I'm counting all my debts in my [G]head
in my [C]head
And I'll always [Am]be [G]here
[C]You spelled my name, when [Am]I was young, I need you right [F]there

[F]Girls on the [G]west coast, [Am]sing it like you used to
[F]Boys on the [G]east coast, [Am]scream with some heart
[F]I'll write a [G]song to [Am]remember where I came from
