[Verse 1]
C                             Am
 I think I'll buy a gun and blame it on my hometown
F                    G
 It's so cold in the D
C                             Am
She asked me if I think I'll ever see her again
F                G
 I say, "Hopefully"


[Refrain]
F            G          C              Am
 And maybe that's how it's supposed to be
F             G                   C
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be


[Verse 2]
C                               Am
My heroes all died young, they hung themselves with fame
F                           G
 And these lunatics, molded me
C                        Am
 I got a tattoo, it's a joke I keep a secret
F                          G
 I need everyone to notice me


[Refrain]
F            G          C              Am
 But maybe that's how it's supposed to be
F             G                   C
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be

F        G          C              Am
 Maybe that's how it's supposed to be
F             G                   C
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be

[Chorus 1]
Am        G        F    C          F          G       C
I think I'll die young           with all my broken dreams
Am           G       F    C    F           G     C
I've got it figured out,     this is the golden key
 F              G                 C
Everything is how it's supposed to be
 F              G                   C
Everything is how it's supposed to be


[Verse 3]
 C                            Am
We messed it all up, now the world is getting warmer
F                   G
L.A. will be out at open sea
C                                  Am
 Meanwhile, I'm falling down, my heart is getting colder
F                         G
I hurt everyone close to me


[Refrain]

F            G          C              Am
 But maybe that's how it's supposed to be
F             G                   C
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be

F        G          C              Am
 Maybe that's how it's supposed to be
F             G                   C
Maybe that's how it's supposed to be.   HEY



[Chorus 2]

Am        G        F    C          F          G       C
I think I'll die young           with all my broken dreams
Am           G       F    C    F           G     C
I've got it figured out,     this is the golden key
Am          G       F    C   F        G        C
The day my daddy died,       I was down the street
Am          G      F    C    F            G      C
I lost my only friend;      people don't grow on trees
     F               G                    Am
But maybe that's the way it's supposed to be
      F                   G                  Am
Yeah, I think that's the way it's supposed to be
      F              G                   Am
Yeah, everything is how it's supposed to be
      F                 G                    C
See, I think that's the way it's supposed to be (Ahh)

Am    G  F   C
