[VERSE 1]
         E
We got a lot of time to get it right
         E                               G#m    B
It feels good to mess it up, maybe don't think about it
      F#
Going late at night who needs a fantasy
           F#                        C#m
Buzzing on Hennessy, class like a Kennedy

Living right now, well you can call it disillusioned
  F#
Until tomorrow comes,
F#                   E
This is how we run

    So take the good stuff, honey
              G#m
    the money just won't buy
D#m
    Spend it up
        F#
    however we like
                B
    So take the good stuff, honey
              G#m
    the money just won't buy
D#m
    Don't try to save us
                  F#
   'cause we're doing it right

[VERSE 2]
              E
Look what you did to me, a rebel born free
        E                                 G#m        B
Running wild through the concrete jungle; now I can't seem
   F#
to stay away; hell, I know that I'm gonna pay
F#                C#m G#m
But I do it anyway
           E
You're the ultimate high that I'm tripping on
           E                                  G#m B
You're the edge of the cliff that I'm hanging on
  F#
Until tomorrow comes,
F#                   E
This is how we run
