Intro: [E] ---- [A] (x2)
[VERSE 1]
[E]I was locked all day in the summer heat
In a small brown house in Suburban S[A]treets
My skateboard and my shit guitar
I'd dream all day that they would get me [E]far
My dad would ask me about my grades
The asshole sports that I never [A]played
And then I'd ask about the girls he'd date
Behind our backs when mom would stay up [E]late
It was near when I turned sixteen
got kicked out of school And so it [A]seemed
things were closing in And ready to blow
My dad moved out about that year or [E]so
It took an hour to start a punk rock band
To offset my fucked up family [A]land
And as I held my mom would start to cry
I swore ourselves a better life
[CHORUS]
[C#m] If I had a [B]chance for another [A]try
I wouldn’t change [C#m]a thing
It's made me [B]all on who I am in[A]side
And if I could thank [C#m]God
That I am [B]here, and that I am a[A]live
And everyday I [C#m]wake
[B] [A](hold)
I tell myself a little harmless lie
The whole wide world is mine
Interlude: [E] ----[A] (x2)
[VERSE 2]
[E]The summers gone, the years have passed
My friends have changed, a few did [A]last
The smallest dreams got pushed aside
for the largest ones that changed my [E]life
And all I wish for was come to pass
From rock and roll, to love and [A]cash
It’s all success if it’s what you need
Do what you like and do it honestly
(Repeat Chorus)
[BRIDGE]
[E] Hey yo oh oh oh
Hey yo oh [A]oh
Hey yo oh oh oh
(Repeat)
