G C
When paradise is no longer fit for you to live in
Cadd9
And your adolescent dreams are gone
G C
Through the days you feel a little used up
Cadd9
And you dont know where your energys gone wrong
G C
Its just your soul feelin a little downhearted
Cadd9
Sometimes life is too ridiculous to live
G C
You count your friends all on one finger
Cadd9
I know it sounds crazy just the way that we live
Chorus:
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
Smile in the mirror as you walk by
G D
Between a laugh and a tear
C
And thats as good as it can get for us
G D C
And there aint no reason to stop tryin
G C
When this cardboard town can no longer amuse you
Cadd9
You see through everything and nothin seems worthwhile
G C
And hypocrite used to be such a big word to you
Cadd9
And it dont seem to mean anything to you now
G C
Just try to live each and every precious moment
Cadd9
Dont be discouraged by the future forget the past
G C
Thats old advice but itll be good to you
Cadd9
I know theres a balance see it when I swing past
