[Verse 1]
G
I was sixteen going twenty-two
Em
If you knew me then, I probably lied to you
Am7
Boys didn't ask for my ID
D
So hell, I said that I was eighteen
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Left high school, I got no straight A's
Em
Packed my bags right up got out of that place
Am7
Moved to LA with no parents
D G
Thought the world would fall right in my hands
[Chorus]
G
But life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Em
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Am7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
D
You're probably not the prom queen
G
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Verse 2]
G
Met a nice guy
Thought he would be the onе
Em
‘Till I spent the night
And it was one and donе
Am7
Never set your standards too high
D
‘Cause you're gonna get let down every time
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Perfect plot-twist
We’re kissing in the rain
Em
Then your phone rings and it's her again
Am7
Saying that she's crazy
And she doesn't mean a thing
D
This ain't a movie, there ain't no happy endings
[Chorus]
G
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Em
Boys aren’t what they should be (Should be, should be)
Am7
Girls are cruel and they’re mean
D
You’re probably not the prom queen
G
Life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Bridge]
G
Couple months are right around here
Em
Love of my life was still not found yet
Am7
And I won’t begin to mention
D G
My best friend didn’t show up on my birthday
Em
Didn’t like when I got attention
Am7 D
So fuck my ex bestfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But life’s not like the movies
Em
Boys can’t be sweet as candy
Am7
We’re still young and we’re free
D
Don’t have to be the prom queen
G
(Life’s not like the movies)
[Chorus]
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Em
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Am7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
D
You're probably not the prom queen
G
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
