[Verse 1]
A
I was sixteen going twenty-two
F#m
If you knew me then, I probably lied to you
Bm7
Boys didn't ask for my ID
E
So hell, I said that I was eighteen
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Left high school, I got no straight A's
F#m
Packed my bags right up got out of that place
Bm7
Moved to LA with no parents
E A
Thought the world would fall right in my hands
[Chorus]
A
But life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
F#m
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Bm7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
E
You're probably not the prom queen
A
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Verse 2]
A
Met a nice guy
Thought he would be the onе
F#m
‘Till I spent the night
And it was one and donе
Bm7
Never set your standards too high
E
‘Cause you're gonna get let down every time
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Perfect plot-twist
We’re kissing in the rain
F#m
Then your phone rings and it's her again
Bm7
Saying that she's crazy
And she doesn't mean a thing
E
This ain't a movie, there ain't no happy endings
[Chorus]
A
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
F#m
Boys aren’t what they should be (Should be, should be)
Bm7
Girls are cruel and they’re mean
E
You’re probably not the prom queen
A
Life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Bridge]
A
Couple months are right around here
F#m
Love of my life was still not found yet
Bm7
And I won’t begin to mention
E A
My best friend didn’t show up on my birthday
F#m
Didn’t like when I got attention
Bm7 E
So fuck my ex bestfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
A
But life’s not like the movies
F#m
Boys can’t be sweet as candy
Bm7
We’re still young and we’re free
E
Don’t have to be the prom queen
A
(Life’s not like the movies)
[Chorus]
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
F#m
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Bm7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
E
You're probably not the prom queen
A
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
