Verse (continue acoustic strummed power chords):

B5         F#5         A5        E5
When I was young I had imaginary friends
    B5      F#5     A5
And boy did we have fun
B5         F#5            A5             E5
One day my mother told me they were just pretend
    B5     F#5    A5
And then I had no one
B5       F#5            A5            E5
Building castles out of dirty, smelly sand
    B5     F#5    A5
And baking in the sun
B5       F#5          A5       E5
Hear the sound of the popsicle man
         B5                 F#5       A5
And we'd run run, run, run, run, run, run

Pre-chorus (power chords):

E5
And my life is like a movie
B5
Everyone is going slow
E5
There's a crazy cast of characters
B5
None of which are real at all
A5                       E
And I cannot feel you anymore
E
No, no, no, no, no-oh (pause)

Verse 2 (bass only):

B5         F#5         A5              E5
In the summer we would spend the night outside
        B5            F#5    A5
In the comfort of our own backyards
B5         F#5         A5               E5
Then we got older and went our separate ways
    B5   F#5       A5
And everything got haaaard

Chorus (just acoustic strummed):
B5      C#m5    E5
Look at me, I'm getting older,
B5      C#m5 A5
Look at me I know
B5      C#m5    E5
Look at me, I'm getting older,
B5      C#m5 A5
Look at me I know
