INTRO: E7+/9   E9
 
E7+
"Welcome to the real world"
       A
She said to me condescendingly
C#m
Take a seat, Take your life
Am
Plot it out in black and white
E7+
Well I never lived the dreams
         A
of the prom kings
And the drama queens
                           C#m
I'd like to think the best of me
                 F#
Is still hiding up my sleeve
 
REFRAIN:
        A
They love to tell you
                        E7+
"Stay inside the lines"
         F#
But something's better
A                      E
On the other side
 
 
 
			
			
 
            Am                  D
I wanna run through the halls
              E
of my high school
            Am
I wanna scream at the
D             E
Top of my lungs
                   Am
I just found out there's no
           D                 E
such thing as the real world
              Am              D        E7+
Just a lie you've got to rise above
 
			
 
 
E7+
So the good boys and girls
         A
take the so called right track
                                          C#m
Faded white hats grabbing credits
Maybe transfers
             Am
They read all the books but they
can't find the answers
E7+                                     A
And all of our parents, They're getting older
                                                       C#m
I wonder if they've wished for anything better
                                            F#
While in their memories tiny tragedies
 
REPEAT REFRAIN
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
Interlude: F A
 
F                A
I am invincible
F                A
I am invincible
F                A
I am invincible
         G             A
As long as I'm alive
 
Adlib: A   E7+   F#   A   E/Ab
 
REPEAT CHORUS
 
             Am              D       E
I just can't wait til my 10 year reunion
                  Am             D         E
I'm gonna bust down the double doors
                 Am                  D          E
And when I stand on these tables before you
              Am                    D      E E7+

Hi Nanko, I too am a novice player, so thank you for the tab!I would like to make a couple of edit suggestions...Would you mind taking out all of the space in between the first REFRAIN and the first CHORUS please? When I use Guitar Tab auto-scroll, it shows a LOT of space there in two places. The second place is going into the second verse...there's a lot of space there too. One other suggestion if I may...since I tend to read the "Note Names" as I play (I'm sure others do as well), it would be great if you simply copy/pasted the "REFRAIN" and "CHORUS" in there perspective places. I don't try to memorize a long of the songs I play...there are so many, so it would be helpful if you simply copy/pasted those parts into their places...it makes for an easier read. Thank you for considering my suggestion Nanko.Thanks again for the tab!
