Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

Long live the reckless and the brave

 I don't think I wanna be saved

 My song has not been sung

 So long live us

Verse

Looking out at a town called Suburbia

Everybody's just fighting to fit in

 Little rats running mazes, having babies

 It's a vicious little world that we live in

Looking back at a life on the other side

I realize that I didn't fit in

 Didn't hate but I didn't quite relate

 To my precious little world

Chorus

 So Long live the reckless and the brave

 I don't think I wanna be saved

 My song has not been sung

 And long live the fast times so come what may

 I don't think I'll ever be saved

 Our song has not been sung

 Long live us

Verse

Breaking out of a town called Suburbia

I remember everybody always saying:

 "Little brat must be crazy, never make it in our vicious little world"

Still I'm leaving

Got a van, got my chance, got my dignity

Got a dream, got a spark, got somewhere to be

Take a breath, say goodbye to their precious little world

(Say goodbye to me!)

Chorus

 So Long live the reckless and the brave

 I don't think I wanna be saved

 My song has not been sung

 And long live the fast times so come what may

 I don't think I'll ever be saved

 Our song has not been sung

 Long live us

 Long Live us

Refrain

Long live the reckless and the brave

 I don't think I wanna be saved

 My song has not been sung

Chorus

Long live the reckless and the brave

 I don't think I wanna be saved

 My song has not been sung

And long live the fast times so come what may

 I don't think I'll ever be saved

 I know our song has not been sung

 Long live us

Long live us
