The bass in this song moves around a lot
and can be difficult to try to follow
exactly, so the chords listed here are
based off video of MB playing on his guitar:

[Verse 1]
          D/A
I know we can’t be cool forever
But we can stay plugged in to life
         D/F#
I wanna listen and pay attention
I wanna fuck up and keep trying
         D/G
I wanna write it down in pencil
         B5               G5
Just in case I change my mind

[Verse 2]
           D/A
I’m always coming up with reasons
That everybody out here sucks
         D/F#
But last week I saw a concert
Felt this universal crush
            D/G
Kids were screaming in the theater
               B5           G5
The band gave everything to us

[Verse 3]
            D/A
I think the big pain of your twenties
Is not knowing where you fit
             D/F#
You’ve tried everything to feel something
’Til you’re not curious
            D/G
So once you get a little money
         B5                G5
You team up and make some kids

[Verse 4]
         D/A
But your kids will have big questions
You’ll be forced to pick a side
     D/F#
Do I tell them something easy
Or do I look them in the eye
            D/G
And say you can’t be cool forever
     B5            G5
But you can stay alive

[Chorus 1]
      D/A
Stay alive!
      D/F#
Stay alive, go and play outside
  D/G
I can’t be cool forever
    B5          G5
But I can stay alive

[Verse 5]
D/A
Jesus was a carpenter
My Daddy sold TVs
               D/F#
My Mom watched other people’s kids
And anticipated needs
             D/G
And when we’d go down to get groceries
         B5              G5
I would flip through magazines

[Verse 6]
        D/A
And I’d wish that I was skinny
Wish I was born as someone else
     D/F#
Even now I play pretend rather
Than put a mirror on myself
         D/G
But it’s time to bite the bullet
            B5                G5
This ain’t heaven, this ain’t hell

[Chorus 2]
         D/A
It’s just   life
      D/F#
Stay alive
        D/G
Hey you can’t be cool forever
             B5            G5
But you can learn to stay alive
             D/A
Bitch, stay alive
