VERSE:
C
In the sixth grade
Am
I was wishing I was older
F C
Not doing my work like I was supposed to
C Am
Yeah on my floor with my comic books open
F C
Just me, myself and me
C
And in the eighth grade
Am
I had the world on my shoulders
F C
Warm inside but the house was getting colder
C Am
Mom upstairs and dad on the sofa
F C
Is this how it\’s meant to be?
PRE-CHORUS:
C Am
Crawling down the path that you paved for me
F C
Lying on the bed that you made for me
C Am
I ain\’t looking for prayers or sympathy
F C
Just hear me out
CHORUS:
C Am
So we get older
F C
And we get wiser
C Am
But don\’t try and tell me what to do
F C
\’Cause this kid\’s got problems too
C Am
Maybe you\’re bolder
F C
A little bit stronger
C Am
And don\’t try and tell me what to do
F C
\’Cause this kid\’s got problems too
VERSE:
C
In the tenth grade
Am
We were skipping class and fooling teachers
F C
They never knew I was kissing her by the bleachers
C Am
All my friends had said she was a keeper
F C
She\’s the one for me
C
Finished twelfth grade
Am
And once I graduated
F C
They said \”Go get a job, you know one so you can pay rent\”
C Am
No nine to five just show me where the stage is
F C
Cause that\’s the place for me
PRE-CHORUS:
C Am
I\’ve been crawling down the path that you paved for me
F C
Lying on the bed that you made for me
C Am
I ain\’t looking for prayers or sympathy
F C
Just hear me out
CHORUS:
C Am
So we get older
F C
And we get wiser
C Am
But don\’t try and tell me what to do
F C
Cause this kid\’s got problems too
C Am
Maybe you\’re bolder
F C
A little bit stronger
C Am
And don\’t try and tell me what to do
F C
Cause this kid\’s got problems too
BREAK:
F C
Well we\’re not so different (we\’re not so different)
G Am
We keep on making the same mistakes (Oooh oooh)
F C
We\’re not so different (we\’re not so different)
G Am
Yeah, we keep on making the same mistakes (Oooh oooh)
F C
We\’re not so different (we\’re not so different)
G Am
Yeah, we keep on making the same mistakes (Oooh oooh)

Back in the sixth grade

Trying to fill the empty space in the sofa
F C
Just me, myself and me
