Verse
[G]She came out [C]west to find the [A]sun
She lost her [C]name, but found a [G]new one
Amy goes to school all [C]day
But at [G]night in the [C]neighborhood they [A]call her [C]Amphetamine
She's [G]perfect in that fucked[C] up way
That [A]all the magazines [C]seem to want to glorify these days
She [G]looks like a [C]teenage anthem
She looks [A]like she used to be [C]happy with the girl inside[G]
[G]Yea, she [G]looks so bored [G]sometimes
Yea, She has that super [G]pale skin and [D]those soft [Eb]green eyes
She [C]looks like she [Ab]could have been happy
In a better life
[G]She came out [C]west just to break away [A]clean
From her [C]family and her friends and a little girl's dreams
All [G]she wants to do [C]every night is [A]to sit beside my[C] window
And listen to the sirens
She's [G]perfect in that fucked[C] up way
That [A]all the magazines [C]seem to want to glorify these days
She [G]looks like a [C]teenage anthem
And she looks [A]like she could have been [C]happy in a another life[G]
[G]Ooo, in another life
[G]Ooo, in another life
[G]Yea, in another life
Oh!
[G]She came out [C]west just to break the [A]spell
After [G]three long [C]years in a marriage [A]from hell
Six months [G]clean, living [C]sober and right
[A]The doctors tell her[C] everything will be alright[G]
[C]Yeah, you [A]just take your pill
And everything will be alright[G]
[C]Yeah, you [A]just take your pill
And everything will be alright[G]
[G]She looks [D]like a teenage [Eb]anthem
She [C]looks like a [Ab]magazine girl
She [G]looks like a teenage[D] anthem
Like [Eb]she used to be[C] happy in [Ab]another world
She looks[G] like a teenage [D]anthem
She is [Eb]happy with [C]the girl [Ab]inside
She [G]looks like a teenage[D] anthem
Looks [Eb]like she could [C]have been [Ab]happy in another life
Ooo, in [G]another life
Happy in [G]another life
Ooo, in [G]another life
Happy in [G]another life
Ooo, [G]in another life
[G]Happy in another life
Ooo, in [G]another life
Happy in[G] another life
[G]Met her at a [C]party and I took her [A]home
She is the [G]saddest [C]girl that I have ever [A]known
Yea, she [G]wakes me up in the [C]middle of the [A]night
Just to [G]tell me [C]everything will be [A]alright
[G]Amy smiles at me, tells me [C]everything will be [A]alright
Yea, [G]Amy smiles at me, tells me [C]everything will be [A]alright
Yea, I [Eb]tell myself the same[C] damn thing [A]every day
Ooo, [G]everything will be [G]alright
Ooo, [G]everything will be [G]alright
Ooo, [G]everything will be [G]alright
