Bm G
I joined a band cause they knew
Bm G
how to dress and what to play
Bm G
I did not have to think much
Bm
Just dye your hair like we do
G
that guitar will get you laid
D
We tried to live that perfect lie
Bm
I thought I'd found the place where I belong
D
We had a totally perfect style
Bm
It had to be so nothing could go wrong

Bm G
I played along with band rules
Bm G
And changed my name to Tom
Bm G
With eyeliner and fake smiles
Bm
When you pose before a mirror
G
it doesn't matter if you're dumb
D
We tried to live that perfect lie
Bm
I thought I'd found the place where I belong

We had a totally perfect style

F D
To leave behind that perfect lie
F D
To try to change your perfect style
F D
You made me panic, when you smiled it's true
F D
So leave behind that perfect lie!
F D
Behind the suits and the beatle boots
we really tried to act like normal friends
F D
But there were lies and fighting too
It made me think that everything would end
F D
I left behind that perfect lie
and found another band where I belong
F D
so get rid of that perfect style
F D
you wanna be - where nothing can go wrong
F G D
nothing can go wrong
F G D
nothing can go wrong
F G D
nothing can go wrong
