[Verse 1]
C
I was sixteen going twenty-two
Am
If you knew me then, I probably lied to you
Dm7
Boys didn't ask for my ID
G
So hell, I said that I was eighteen
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Left high school, I got no straight A's
Am
Packed my bags right up got out of that place
Dm7
Moved to LA with no parents
G C
Thought the world would fall right in my hands
[Chorus]
C
But life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Am
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Dm7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
G
You're probably not the prom queen
C
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Verse 2]
C
Met a nice guy
Thought he would be the onе
Am
‘Till I spent the night
And it was one and donе
Dm7
Never set your standards too high
G
‘Cause you're gonna get let down every time
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Perfect plot-twist
We’re kissing in the rain
Am
Then your phone rings and it's her again
Dm7
Saying that she's crazy
And she doesn't mean a thing
G
This ain't a movie, there ain't no happy endings
[Chorus]
C
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Am
Boys aren’t what they should be (Should be, should be)
Dm7
Girls are cruel and they’re mean
G
You’re probably not the prom queen
C
Life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Bridge]
C
Couple months are right around here
Am
Love of my life was still not found yet
Dm7
And I won’t begin to mention
G C
My best friend didn’t show up on my birthday
Am
Didn’t like when I got attention
Dm7 G
So fuck my ex bestfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
C
But life’s not like the movies
Am
Boys can’t be sweet as candy
Dm7
We’re still young and we’re free
G
Don’t have to be the prom queen
C
(Life’s not like the movies)
[Chorus]
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
Am
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
Dm7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
G
You're probably not the prom queen
C
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
