A5
Vera's face burnt as a memory of bedroom fun
G5
With a lighter and some hairspray
Smoking in the girls' room
A5
Not worse than Shelley's rape behind the McDonald's
G5
By a man she thought was fine, didn't tell anybody
A5
Or maybe back then we just thought that she was getting some
G5
Now we look back and see that she didn't know how
A5
We never thought that we'd get caught up
G5
Stuck in the teenage waste
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
A5 G5
Then getting drunk in the bushes by the road outside the Kmart
A5
Rolling around in them to see if you would get prickled
G5
Slip the acid on your tongue roof top mall parkade
We couldn't get enough
A5
Then count the stars and the ten million woes
G5
Just you and the universe judging each other
A5
We never knew that we'd get caught up
G5
Stuck in the teenage waste
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we let go
A5
It's a fight, it's a fight and you finally belong
G5
Got a shiner now and it's more than a battle scar
More than a battle scar, such a good, good story to tell
A5
At lunch break, lunch break, lunch break, lunch break
Such a good, good story to tell
G5
You bully, you break, you bully, you break
You fake, you fake, you fake, you fake
A5 G5
You smoke, you toke, you want, you flaunt, you hit it and you're in it and it's spinning
And it's wild
A5
We never thought that we'd get caught up
G5
Stuck in the teenage waste
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we explode
D5 A5 G5
As we let go
D5
We're counting the stars
We're counting the stars
A5 G5
We're gonna go far, we're gonna go far
D5
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
A5 G5
We're not very far, we're not very far
D5
And it's you and me in the open air
A5 G5
It's truth or dare, we don't care
D5
We're counting the stars, we're counting the stars,
A5 G5 D5
we're counting the stars, we're counting the stars
