The shots of Tequila, man they'll say that they need ya 
A                                     G# 
But what they really need, is just a little room to breath
[Estrofe]
C#m 
Teeny bopping disco queen, she barely understands 
    F# 
Her dreams of bellybutton rings and other kinds of things 
A                                     G# 
Symbolic of change but the thing that is strange 
            G# 
Is that the changes occurred, and now she's just a part of

You understand moods, but he only knows let down

C#m 
By the corner there's another one 
F# 
Reaching out a hand, coming from a broken man, well 
A 
You try to live but he's done trying 
G# 
Not dead but definitely dying
