...This is a song with the same four chords I use most of the time, When I've got something on my mind
D Asus4 Em G
And I don't want to squander the moment, Trying to come up with a better way To say what I want to say
D Asus4 Em G
...People were mean to you... But I always thought you were cool...
D Asus4 Em G
...Clicking down the concrete hallways... In your spiked heels, Back in high school
D Asus4 Em G D Asus4 Em G

...It's good to be young, but let's not kid ourselves, it's
Em G
better to pass on through those years and come out the other side
D Asus4 Em G
...With our hearts still beating... Having stared down demons, Come back breathing
D Asus4 Em G
...People were mean to you... But I always thought you were cool...
D Asus4 Em G
...Clicking down the concrete hallways... In your spiked heels, Back in high school
G Asus4 D G
...You deserved better than you got, Someone's got to say it sometime because it's true
Em Asus4 D Asus4
...People should have told you you were awesome, Instead of taking advantage of you
D Asus4 Em G
...I hope you love your life now ...Like I love mine
D Asus4 Em G
...I-hope-the-painful-memories-only flex their power over you... a little of the time
D Asus4 Em G
...We held on to hope of-better-days-coming, And when we did we were right
D Asus4 Em G
...I hope the people who did you wrong... Have trouble sleeping at night
D Asus4 Em G
...People were mean to you... But I always thought you were cool...
D Asus4 Em G
...Clicking down the concrete hallways... In your spiked heels, Back in high school
