Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
N.C.
When I was just a boy
N.C.
My momma told me, "Son:
N.C.
You look so serious
N.C.
Smile and have some fun"
N.C.
When I was seventeen
N.C.
My father let me know
N.C.
"Life isn't fun and games
N.C.
Gotta sell your soul"

Pre-Chorus:
Gm7                            F6
   I don't know how I ended up
                           Gm7
So close to where I started
                               F6
I went to war for peace of mind
              Eb6
But what's it for?

Been to the moon and back
N.C.
And all I've realized
N.C.
No one knows a thing
