Intro

Emaj9 Eadd9 (x4)

Verse

"welcome to the real world"
she said to me condescendingly
"take a seat, take your life
plot it out in black and white"
well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings and the drama queens
I'd like to think the best of me
is still hiding up my sleeve

Pre-Chorus

They love to tell you stay inside the lines
But something's better on the other side

Chorus

N.C. Am9 Emaj9
I want to run through the halls of my high school
I want to scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
just a lie you've got to rise above

Verse 2

so the good boys and girls
take the so-called right track
faded white hats grabbing credits, maybe transfers
they read all the books but they can't find the answers
All of our parents, they're getting older
I wonder if they've wished for anything better
while in their memories, tiny tragedies

Pre-Chorus

They love to tell you stay inside the lines
But something's better on the other side

Chorus

N.C. Am9 Emaj9
I want to run through the halls of my high school
I want to scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
just a lie you've got to rise above

Bridge

I am invincible
I am invincible
I am invincible
as long as I'm alive

Interlude

     

Chorus

N.C. Am9 Emaj9
I want to run through the halls of my high school
I want to scream at the top of my lungs
I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
just a lie you've got to rise above

Outro

I just can't wait for my ten year reunion
I'm gonna bust down the double doors
and when I stand on these tables before you
you will know what all this time was for
