Verse 1
[G]Somebody once [D]told me the [Am]world is gonna [C]roll me
I [G]ain't the sharpest [D]tool in the [Am]shed [C]
She was [G]looking kinda [D]dumb with her [Am]finger and her
[C]Thumb in the [G]shape of an [D]"L" on her [Am]forehead [C]
Well the [G]years start coming and they [D]don't stop coming
[Am]Fed to the rules and I [C]hit the ground running
[G]Didn't make sense not to [D]live for fun
Your [Am]brain gets smart but your [C]head gets dumb
[G]So much to do [D]so much to see
So what's [Am]wrong with taking the [C]back streets
You'll [G]never know if you don't [D]go
You'll [Am]never shine if you don't [C]glow

You're [Am]bundled up now but wait [C]'til you get older
But the [G]meteor men beg to [D]differ
Judging by the [Am]hole in the satellite [C]picture
The ice we [G]skate is getting pretty [D]thin
The waters getting [Am]warm so you might as well [C]swim
My world's on [G]fire how about [D]yours
That's the way I [Am]like it and I never get [C]bored
