“Wel come to the real world,” she (Amaj9)said to me con de scend ing ly. “Take (C#)a seat, take your life. Plot it out in black and white.” Well, I nev er lived the dreams of the prom kings and the dra ma queens. I’d like to think the (C#)best of me is still hid ing (F#7)up my sleeve. They (Amaj9)love to tell you “Stay in side the lines.” But (F#7)some thing’s bet ter (Amaj9)on the oth er side. I wan na run through the halls of my (Emaj9)high school. I wan na scream at the top (D7)of my (Emaj9)lungs. I just found out there’s no such (D7)thing as the (Emaj9)real world. Just a lie you’ve got to (D7)rise a (Emaj9)bove. So the good boys and girls take the (Amaj9)so called right track, fad ed white hats, grab bing cred (C#)its and may be trans fers. They (Em9)read all the books but they can’t find the an swers. And all of our par ents, they’re get ting old er. I won der if they’ve wished for an y thing (C#)bet ter while in their mem ’ries, ti ny (F#7)trag e dies. They I am in vin (A)ci ble.

I just found out there’s no such (D7)thing as the (Emaj9)real world. Just a lie you’ve got to (D7)rise a (Emaj9)bove. I just can’t wait till my ten year re (Emaj9)un ion. I’m gon na bust down the (D7)dou ble doors. And when I stand on these (D7)ta bles (Emaj9)be fore you, you will know what all this (D7)time was for.
