Intro
[Emaj9] [Eadd9]
Verse 1
[Emaj9]Welcome to the real world
[Amaj9]she said to me condescendingly
[C#m7]Take a seat, take your life
[Em7]plot it out in black and white
[Emaj9]Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings and the drama queens
[Amaj9]I'd like to think the best of me
[C#m7]is still hiding up my sleeve
[F#11]
Pre-Chorus
[Asus2]They love to tell you stay inside the lines
[F#11]But something's [Asus2]better on the [Emaj9]other side
Chorus
[Am9]I want to run through the halls of my high school
[Am9]I want to scream at the top of my lungs
[Am9]I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
[Am9]just a lie you've got to [Emaj9]rise above
Verse 2
[Emaj9]So the good boys and girls
[Amaj9]take the so-called right track
[C#m7]faded white hats grabbing credits, maybe transfers
[Em7]they read all the books but they can't find the answers
[Emaj9]All of our parents, they're getting older
[Amaj9]I wonder if they've wished for anything better
[C#m7]while in their memories, tiny tragedies
[F#11]
Pre-Chorus
[Asus2]They love to tell you stay inside the lines
[F#11]But something's [Asus2]better on the [Emaj9]other side
Chorus
[Am9]I want to run through the halls of my high school
[Am9]I want to scream at the top of my lungs
[Am9]I just found out there's no such thing as the real world
[Am9]just a lie you've got to [Emaj9]rise above
Bridge
[Fmaj7#11]I am [Aadd9]invincible
[Fmaj7#11]I am [Aadd9]invincible
[Aadd9]I am invincible
[G13]as long as I'm alive
Interlude
[Asus2] [Emaj9] [F#11] [Asus2] [Emaj9]
Chorus
[Am9]I want to run through the halls of my high school

Outro
[Am9]I just can't wait for my ten year reunion
[Am9]I'm gonna bust down the double doors
[Am9]and when I stand on these tables before you
[Am9]you will know what all this time [Emaj9]was for
