Verse 1:
[D]They tore my high school to the [D/C]ground
And put a new wing in the [G/B]east lot
On my [Bb6]old parking sp[Cadd9]ot
[D]It stands reminding me of [D/C]how
I wish that I could travel [G/B]back in time
Change my [Bb6]state of mind [Cadd9]
Pre-Chorus 1:
[A]So if you're still in your teens listen to me
Verse 2:
[D]It's hard to see beyond [D/C]these walls
Of who hope and you hope [G/B]not to be
[Bb6]Socially[Cadd9]
[D]Maybe you're in or you're o[D/C]ut
But in the end when all your [G/B]hats are in the air
[Bb6]Nobody's gonna care[Cadd9]
Pre-Chorus 2:
So [A]featherweight freshmen hold on
Chorus 1:
It's only four years [D]long
Then it's [Am7]gone
And the [G]queen of the nerds and the [Em7]king of the [A]prom
Get a [D]job
Look at them [Am7]now
She's [G]living her dreams while he [Em7]sleeps with his [A]crown
So be [Em7]cool, be [D/F#]hot, be [G]weird
It's [A]just four years[D] [A/D][G/D][A/D]
Verse 3:
[D]Next time you're walking through your [D/C]school
Take at who's [G/B]surrounding you
[Bb6]Or hounding you[Cadd9]
[D]Cause it's all just castles in the [D/C]sand
When your tassel's on the [G/B]left side of your head
You're [Bb6]never going back[Cadd9]
Pre-Chorus 3:
So hom[A]ecoming court vote on
Chorus 2:
It's only four years [D]long
Then it's [Am7]gone
And the [G]king of the nerds and the [Em7]queen of the p[A]rom
Get a [D]job
What did you [Am7]know?
He's a [G]CEO and she [Em7]answers his [A]phone
So be [Em7]cool, be [D/F#]hot, be w[G]eird
It's [A]just four year[D]s
Bridge:
And [G]as for your grades I [A]know they're important
Every[Bm]one wants to [C]be a [G]wiz
?Cause [G]all of it goes on [A]permanent transcripts
[Em7]I just don't [D/F#]know where mine [A]is
Interlude:
