[Verse 1]
D
I was sixteen going twenty-two
Bm
If you knew me then, I probably lied to you
Em7
Boys didn't ask for my ID
A
So hell, I said that I was eighteen
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Left high school, I got no straight A's
Bm
Packed my bags right up got out of that place
Em7
Moved to LA with no parents
A D
Thought the world would fall right in my hands
[Chorus]
D
But life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Bm
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Em7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
A
You're probably not the prom queen
D
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Verse 2]
D
Met a nice guy
Thought he would be the onе
Bm
‘Till I spent the night
And it was one and donе
Em7
Never set your standards too high
A
‘Cause you're gonna get let down every time
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Perfect plot-twist
We’re kissing in the rain
Bm
Then your phone rings and it's her again
Em7
Saying that she's crazy
And she doesn't mean a thing
A
This ain't a movie, there ain't no happy endings
[Chorus]
D
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Bm
Boys aren’t what they should be (Should be, should be)
Em7
Girls are cruel and they’re mean
A
You’re probably not the prom queen
D
Life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Bridge]
D
Couple months are right around here
Bm
Love of my life was still not found yet
Em7
And I won’t begin to mention
A D
My best friend didn’t show up on my birthday
Bm
Didn’t like when I got attention
Em7 A
So fuck my ex bestfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
D
But life’s not like the movies
Bm
Boys can’t be sweet as candy
Em7
We’re still young and we’re free
A
Don’t have to be the prom queen
D
(Life’s not like the movies)
[Chorus]
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Bm
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Em7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
A
You're probably not the prom queen
D
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
