"Good Lives" by Eve 6

C#m E
There's a plastic toy four door in the cereal box and
A B
He's licking off the sugar of the breakfast of chumps
C#m A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
E B
Growing up and learning to lie
C#m E
There is no floor thirteen, there's not even a second story
A B
You got one to tell and it's sad as hell
C#m A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
E B
Growing up and learning to lie
C#m E
Grad school kid with wall street glib
A B
Got a suit and a tie and a record with winners
C#m A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
E B
Growing up and learning to lie
A
I'm on my way back home now
E B A
Good lives are gold, like the oldest story
E B A
Will mine be told, while I'm still young and horny?
E B A
I know my role is to be a confusion
E B A
Set the clock back when I'm growing old
(Repeat intro x1)
C#m E
This kid came over and I let him crash
A B
But he went into my wallet and he grabbed my cash
C#m A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
E B
Growing up and learning to lie
C#m E
And the good girlfriend, she turned me in
A B
I was lying with my eyes about adulterous sin
C#m A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
E B
Growing up and learning to lie
A
I'm on my way back home now
(repeat chorus)
C#m E B A
I never wanted to be like you or all the rest
C#m E B A
I've always been the first one to settle for second best
C#m E
I never wanted to be
B A
I never wanted to be
C#m B A
I never wanted to be like you
(repeat chorus)
E A
Promise that forever we will never get better at
C#m B
Growing up and learning to lie
(repeat this last part 3 times)
E
Promise it
(Also, if you want the bassline, it's entirely root notes of the chords.
C#m = 4th fret A-string (actually 2nd fret low B-string; it's recorded on a 5-string, but most people don't have one.)
E = open E-string
A = open A-string
B = 2nd fret A-string)
