[E]
Welcome to the real [A] world, she said to me, condescendingly.
Take [F#m] a seat, take your life, [Em] plot it out in black and white.
[E] Well, I never lived the dream [A] of the prom kings and the drama queens.
I'd like to think [F#m] the best of me is still [F#] hiding up my sleeve.
[A] They love to tell you stay inside the [E] lines.
[F#] But something's [A] better on the [E] [F#m] other [E] side.
[G#] I [Am] want to run through the [E] halls of my high school.
I want to [Am] scream in the [D] top of [E] my lungs.
I [Am] just found out there's no [D] such thing [E] as the real world.
[Am] Just a lie you've got your [E] eyes above.
So the good boys and [A] girls take the so-called right track,
faded white hat, [F#m] grabbing credits, maybe transfers.
[Em] They read all the books, but they can't find the answers.
[E] All of our parents, [A] they're getting older.
I wonder if they wish for anything [F#m] better while in their memories.
Tiny [F#] tragedies.
[A]
They love to tell you stay inside the [E] line.
[C#m]
[F#] But something's better [A] on [E] the other side.
I want [Am] to run through the halls of [E] my high school.
I want [Am] to scream in the top [E] of my lungs.
I just [Am] found out there's no such thing as [E] the real world.
Just [Am] a lie you've got your [E] eyes above.
[F]
[A] [F] I [A] am invincible.
[F] I [A] am invincible.
[F] I am [A] invincible.
[F] As long as [A] I'm alive.
[E]
[F#]
[E]
I want [Am] to run through the halls of [E] my high school.
I want [Am] to scream in the top of [E] my lungs.
I just [Am] found out there's no such thing [E] as the real world.
[Am] Just a lie you've got your [E] eyes above.
I [C] just can't wait for my 10 [E] year reunion.
I'm [Am] gonna bust down the double [E] doors.
And [Am] when I stand on these [E] tables before you.
[Am] You will know what all this [E] time is for.
