intro- drums then G
I was a debGater
Was not a stoner nor an Dinline skater
Was not a player nor a Cplayer hater
EI was just a bookworm on a rCespirator
DWho’s to say that?G??s wrong
I was in the Gchess club
Didn’t have a swimming pool mucDh less a true love
Didn’t have a dalliance mucCh less a hot tub
EI was just a brain whose brain Cnever let up
DWho’s to say that?G??s wrong
The Ctwelve years after five
Are years we’rCe lucky to surviGve
Hang in there friends fEorever
In memory far Daway
Hang in there friends Cforever
In EmemorDy far Gaway
Went out for the Gfootball team
Found out the hard way that you can’Dt live your Dad’s dream
Had pretty thin skin to be Cin the machine
EThen I found a guitar and the Crest’s a fanzine
DWho’s to say that?G??s wrong
The mCoral of the song
Is that the Chigh school kids are wrong
You know they Chave been all along
Come gradCuation you’ll be goneG
Hang in there friends Eforever
In memory far Daway
Hang in there friends Cforever
In EmemorDy far Gaway
solo over verse chords
The mCoral of the song
Is that the Chigh school kids are wrong
You know they Chave been all along
Come graCduation you’ll beG gone
Hang in there friends Eforever
In memory far Daway
Hang in there friends Cforever
In EmemorDy far Gaway
In EmemorDy far Gaway
E D end on G
ps. if youre playing this electric...for the verse play the E as a bar chord on the 7th
fret of the A string and for the chorus play the E as an open E cause thats how it is on
the recording
if you wanna play it acoustic using all open chords it sounds cool too
