D                              A 
Long live the reckless and the brave  
                          Bm 
I don't think I wanna be saved 
                      A 
My song has not been sung 
 
So,long live us 
 
Verse 
 
D                             
Looking out at town called Suburbia, 
A                      
Everybody's just fighting to fit in, 
Bm 
Little rats running mazes, having babies, 
                        A 
It's a vicious little world that we live in. 
 
D                                   
Looking out, got a life on the other side, 
A 
I realise that I didn't fit in, 
Bm                                                                  A 
Didn't hate it, but I didn't quite relate it to my precious little world. 
 
 
D                              A 
So, Long live the reckless and the brave  
                          Bm 
I don't think I wanna be saved 
                      A 
My song has not been sung 
D                                          A 
And long live the fast times so come what may, 
                            Bm 
I don't think I'll ever be saved, 
                        A 
Our song has not been sung. 
 
Long live us! 
 
Verse
 
D  
Breaking out of a town called Suburbia, 
A 
I remember everybody, 
                      Bm 
Always saying little brat must be crazy,  
                                      A 
Never make it in our vicious little world, 
 
Still I'm leaving. 
 
D                          
Got a van, got a chance, got my dignity, 
A                        
Got a dream, got a spark, got somewhere to be, 
Bm                                                 A 
Take a breath, say goodbye to the precious little world. 
 
 
D                              A 
So, Long live the reckless and the brave
