How To Play

INTRO  Am - F - Dm - E
VERSE  Am - F - Dm - E
CHORUS Am - Am - F - Dm
 
Note: Following the Dm up with a Dsus2 sounds very satisfying for the chorus parts. Also keep in mind that only the chorus is in 4/4. The rest of the song alternates between odd time signatures.

VERSE 1
 
Am                   F
    I never wanna be old  
      Dm                    E
And I don't want dependents 
Am                    F
    It's no fun to be told 
         Dm                          E
That you can't blame your parents anymore 
Am                     F
    I'm finding it hard 
                     Dm   E
to hang from a star 
                     F
Don't wanna be 
                     Dm
I don't wanna be old
 
 
CHORUS
 
Am             Am
    Sullen and bored the kids stay 
       F                               Dm
And in this way they wish away each day 
Am                Am
    Stoned in the mall the kids play 
       F                               Dm
And in this way they wish away each day
 
Am - Am - F - Dm
Am - Am - F - Dm
 
VERSE 2
 
Am                   F
   I don't really know 
       Dm                  E
If I care what is normal
Am                      F
   And I'm not really sure 
         Dm                          E
If the pills I've been taking are helping 
 
Am                F
   I'm wasting my life
           Dm    E
Hurting inside
                     F
I don't really know 
                    Dm
And I'm not really sure

And in this way they wish away each day 
Am                Am
    Stoned in the mall the kids play 
       F                               Dm
And in this way they wish away each day
