18+
D                               G
I'm feeling rough, I'm feeling raw
                        D
I'm in the prime of my life
D                                 G
Let's make some music, make some money
                      D
Find some models for wives

I'll move to Paris, shoot some heroin
And fuck with the stars
You man the island and the cocaine
And the elegant cars

G
This is our decision to live fast and die young.
                                           D
We've got the vision, now let's have some fun
G
Yeah it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up
                 D
for the morning commute?

Chorus:
A                                F#m
Forget about our mothers and our friends.
         G     A     D
We were fated to pretend.
G      D
to pretend.
         G           D
We were fated to pretend.
G      D
to pretend.

I'll miss the playgrounds
And the animals and diggin' up worms
I'll miss the comfort of my mother
And the weight of the world
I'll miss my sister, miss my father
Miss my dog and my home
Yeah, I'll miss the boredom and the freedom
And the time spent alone

But there is really nothing, nothing we can do
Love must be forgotten,
life can always start up anew
The models will have children, we'll get a divorce
We'll find some more models,
everything must run its course
We'll choke on our vomit and that will be the end

Chorus:
We were fated to pretend
To pretend
We're fated to pretend
To pretend

I said yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
