[Intro – filtered] Flicker from a half-dead sign You walked in and rewrote my night Ashtray full and the jukebox loud We were nobodies in a dead-end town Then you laughed and the static split Like the world finally gave a shit Stains running down my favorite shirt But your name’s written in the dirt [Build] On my boots and in my brain You’re the high inside the pain Cracked phone and an empty tank We got dreams but we’re always broke at the bank Sleeping on a stranger’s floor Both of us want something more Cheap wine, talking ’bout our scars Trading secrets under dying stars Every scar you showed me back Felt like color on my faded black We’re a riot in cheap perfume Two ghosts dancing in a rented room Every chord, every cigarette Ties me closer to you yet [Drop – Chorus] Happy days are here again Yeah, we’re flying down the freeway, hand in hand Turn it up to ten, my friend We’re burning out but we don’t care when Heartbeats banging like a drum In the feedback and the fuzz we’re young Yeah, we break but never bend Happy days are here again [Bridge – half-time] If the sky falls down, let it crash on me As long as you’re the last thing that I see If we fade out fast in a blaze of sound We’ll be legends in this busted town [Breakdown – call & response] Whoa, oh, oh, we don’t need a plan Just your fingers laced tight in my hand Whoa, oh, oh, let ’em talk, pretend They don’t know the way our broken hearts mend [Final Chorus – double-time] Happy days are here again Yeah, we’re flying down the freeway, hand in hand Turn it up to ten, my friend We’re burning out but we don’t care when Heartbeats banging like a drum In the feedback and the fuzz we’re young Yeah, we break but never bend Happy days are here again [Outro] Happy, happy, happy days, my friend In your arms is where the darkness ends Through the noise and all the static in my head Happy days are here again
