The teenage [F]queen, the loaded [C]gun, the drop dead [G]dream, the chosen one A southern [F]drawl, a world [C]unseen, a city [G]wall and a trampoline Oh well I don’t [F]mind, if you don’t [C]mind, ’cause I don’t [G]shine if [E]you don’t [Am]shine Before you [F]jump, tell me what you, [G]find when you read my mind

[Am] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F] [G] [G]Slipping in my [F]faith until I [C]fall, he never [G]returned that call [G]Woman, open the [F]door, don’t let it [C]sting, I wanna breathe that [G]fire again, She said, I don’t [Am]mind, if you don’t [G]mind, ’cause I don’t [F]shine if you don’t [C]shine Put your back on [Am]me, put your back on [G]me, put your back on [F]me
