For [A]the past 18 years; your [C#m]life's been pretty smooth;
Let's[D] take a moment and reflect on; [A]all you've had to [E]do.

You'[A]ve rolled outta bed; and[C#m] strolled to the living room
and watched Car[D]toon Network while your mom made [A]waffles for yo[E]u.

Your[A] laundry; was magically [C#m]cleaned.
And y[D]our dad's back pocket was an[A] ATM machin[E]e.

Your l[A]ife's biggest worry; was what to[C#m] wear to the prom.
And yo[D]ur only regret was that incident -[A] with the stink[E]bomb.

But, [D]do you hear that subtle sound?
[E] (hold)
it's the sound of reality about to slap the taste out yo' mouth!

Now you're on your ow[A]n
Don't screw this [F#m]up.
You're on your o[D]wn.
Good luck[A] . (You're gonna need it.)

You're y[A]oung and now you're free; the [C#m]world is your oyster
We have [D]no clue what that means...but let us paint a[A] picture of your [E]future:

You're gonna e[A]at alotta Hot Pockets; and you're thinking[C#m] "that sounds great!"
well, [D]get back to us in 6 months; wh[A]en you've had 37[E]8.

As soon a[A]s you move out; you know what you [C#m]parents are gonna do?
They're go[D]nna turn your bedroom into an exercise [A]room that they ne[E]ver use.

And you won't use loc[A]kers in college. And this might be a total[C#m] bummer-
There ar[D]e no yearbooks either; you actually have to say-&[A]quot;have a great
sum[E]mer."

Do y[D]ou hear that KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK?
[E] (hold)
That's personal responsibility about to put you in a head lock

Now you're on you[A]r own
You should be scare[F#m]d.
But we can tel[D]l
You don[A]'t care. Why don't you care? You should be frightened right now.

Do[D] you sense that gentle breeze?
[E] (hold)
it's the category-5 hurricane of adulthood about to HIT YOU UP SIDE THE HEAD WITH A TREE.

Now you're on your ow[A]n
Don't screw this up[F#m] .
You're on your own[D] .
Good luck[A] . (You're gonna need it.)
