[[VERSE 1]]
Cadd9
Paper bags and plastic hearts
G
All are belongings in shopping carts
Em7
It's goodbye
Cadd9
But we got one more night
G
Let's get drunk and ride around
Dsus4
And make peace with an empty town
Cadd9
We can make it right
[[CHORUS]]
Em7
Throw it away
Cadd9
Forget yesterday
G Dsus4
We'll make the great escape
Em7 Cadd9
We won't hear a word they say
G Dsus4
They don't know us anyway
A7sus4
Watch it burn
G
Let it die
Cadd9 Dsus4
Cause we are finally free tonight

[[VERSE 2]]
Cadd9
Tonight will change our lives
G
It's so good to be by your side
Em7
But we'll cry
Cadd9
We won't give up the fight
G
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
Dsus4
And they'll think it's just cause we're young
Cadd9
And we'll feel so alive
[[CHORUS]]
Em7
Throw it away
Cadd9
Forget yesterday
G Dsus4
We'll make the great escape
Em7 Cadd9
We won't hear a word they say
G Dsus4
They don't know us anyway
A7sus4
Watch it burn
G
Let it die
Cadd9 Dsus4
Cause we are finally free tonight
[[BRIDGE]]
Cadd9
All of the wasted time
G
The hours that were left behind
Dsus4
The answers that we'll never find
A7sus4
They don't mean a thing tonight
Em7 Cadd9 G Dsus4 x2
[[CHORUS]] (strum once)
Em7
Throw it away
Cadd9
Forget yesterday
G Dsus4
We'll make the great escape
Em7 Cadd9
We won't hear a word they say
G Dsus4
They don't know us anyway
[[CHORUS]]
Em7
Throw it away
Cadd9
Forget yesterday
G Dsus4
We'll make the great escape
Em7 Cadd9
We won't hear a word they say
G Dsus4
They don't know us anyway
Em7
Throw it away
Cadd9
Forget yesterday
G Dsus4
We'll make the great escape
Em7 Cadd9
We won't hear a word they say
G Dsus4
They don't know us anyway
A7sus4
Watch it burn
G
Let it die
Cadd9 Dsus4
Cause we are finally free tonight
