[C]
[Em]
He says you're awful young for 21, you've got some work to do.
[Am] Bite your pencil [F] harder than you were [C] planning to.
You daydream slowly, sleep too quick, [G] you [C] need a sharper view.
[Am] There's much more out [F] there than someone [Fm] who's [C] lying next to you.
He said you're capable of so much more [Am] than these people give you [Dm] credit for
[C] and you just need to show it.
Growing up was not an easy movement for me.
[Am] You'd nudge and nudge, you'd [F] push and shove and [Fm] I might [C] still stay asleep.
And it's a struggle to think on my feet, I fear the harsh regard.
[Am] But friend if [F] you'd encourage me, [Fm] I know I'd [C] make it far.
You said I am capable of so much [D] more than these people give you credit [C] for
and I just need to show it.
[F] [Fm] [D]
[Am] [Bb] [Dm]
[F] [Fm] [Dm]
[A] [Am] [D] [Am] And my [Dm] anger [F] surrounds me like a [Am] cold when I shiver.
[Bb]
I let it surround me with [Am] these thoughts often so bitter.
[F] But friend if you'd help me, I [Am] think I'd make it through this winter.
[G]
You [C] said I am capable of so much [Dm] more than these people give me credit [F] for
and I just need to show it.
[C] Oh I am capable of so much more [D] than you people give me credit [F] for
and I just need [C] to show it.
