The faces have all changed, there's no one left to talk to
High school seemed like such a blur
Story of my life
You only wanna do what you think is right
You only wanna do what you think is right
Story of my life
Thinkin' 'bout what you're doin' now
Story of my life
Story of my life
Life goes by so fast
I strum my guitar and I sing an Outlaw love song
And the pool hall I loved as a kid is now a 7-11
Story of my life
Story of my life
Story of my life
And in class I dreamed all day 'bout a rock 'n' roll weekend
Story of my life
I had no training, no experience to speak of
And the girl in the front of the room

Life goes by so fast
And why they had to end
Story of my life
You only wanna do what you think is right
And I went downtown to look for a job
Story of my life
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
The story of my life
I only wish the good times would last a little longer
So close yet so far you know she never seemed to notice
So I sit at the edge of my bed
Story of my life
That this silly schoolboy crush wasn't just pretend
And I went down to my old neighborhood
And I turned and headed back
Close your eyes and it's past
And I looked at the holes in my jeans
Life goes by so fast
And when you're comin' back
Close your eyes and it's past
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life
I think about the good times we had
