F            C   A#
Out here in the fields
F            C  A#

I get my back into my living

To prove I'm right

I don't need to be forgiven,

Don't cry

Don't raise your eye
     F    A#       C
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally, take my hand
We'll travel south cross land
Put out the fire, and don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together,  before we get much older

Chorus:
         F       C  A#
Teenage wasteland
                   F       C  A#
It's only teenage wasteland
         F         C   A#
Teenage wasteland, Oh, yeah
         F       C A#
Teenage wasteland
             C    C A#
They're all wasted!
