[Verse 1]
E
I was sixteen going twenty-two
C#m
If you knew me then, I probably lied to you
F#m7
Boys didn't ask for my ID
B
So hell, I said that I was eighteen
[Pre-Chorus]
E
Left high school, I got no straight A's
C#m
Packed my bags right up got out of that place
F#m7
Moved to LA with no parents
B E
Thought the world would fall right in my hands
[Chorus]
E
But life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
C#m
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
F#m7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
B
You're probably not the prom queen
E
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Verse 2]
E
Met a nice guy
Thought he would be the onе
C#m
‘Till I spent the night
And it was one and donе
F#m7
Never set your standards too high
B
‘Cause you're gonna get let down every time
[Pre-Chorus]
E
Perfect plot-twist
We’re kissing in the rain
C#m
Then your phone rings and it's her again
F#m7
Saying that she's crazy
And she doesn't mean a thing
B
This ain't a movie, there ain't no happy endings
[Chorus]
E
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
C#m
Boys aren’t what they should be (Should be, should be)
F#m7
Girls are cruel and they’re mean
B
You’re probably not the prom queen
E
Life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
[Bridge]
E
Couple months are right around here
C#m
Love of my life was still not found yet
F#m7
And I won’t begin to mention
B E
My best friend didn’t show up on my birthday
C#m
Didn’t like when I got attention
F#m7 B
So fuck my ex bestfriend
[Pre-Chorus]
E
But life’s not like the movies
C#m
Boys can’t be sweet as candy
F#m7
We’re still young and we’re free
B
Don’t have to be the prom queen
E
(Life’s not like the movies)
[Chorus]
But life’s not like the movies (Movies, movies)
C#m
Boys aren't what they should be (Should be, should be)
F#m7
Girls are cruel and they're mean
B
You're probably not the prom queen
E
Life's not like the movies (Movies, movies)
