Intro (2x) verse 1 When I was just a little kid they told me to dream big you can do anything when I got older they told me to stop dreaming start being more realistic, make the coffee do the dishes but I can't seem to keep my head out of the clouds cause whats the point of living life to work until I die That can't be it and if it is then I want out and honestly I never had a dream of getting older but here I am what can I do about it, tell me what to do about it now Bridge Cause I never wanted to be every single stereotype of a white middle class 20-something pissed at the economy I never meant to be the epitome of a quarter life crisis and being a junkie didn't live up to the hype Solo During the mandolin solo the guitar plays through the intro again: (2x) verse 2 When I was just a little kid they told me I was special Then I grew up and found out they told that to every single one of us get addicted to our drugs then go away to universities where we'll sell you dreams then make you work for free They handed us an economy thats destined us for poverty then have the nerve to call us soft and lazy for complaining cause they're from a generation where you could be what you wanted to be but baby I'm a 90's kid, only 90's kids will understand this Chorus Listen to song for strumming pattern as it changes here. I'm also doing a lot of blank percussive noises in between the chords (hits) x3 x3 got bill collectors calling us to pay back student loans but they can't ever find us if we throw away our phones (Palm muted) then we can sit in diners, drinking coffee smoking cigarettes outside look in each others' eyes without cell phone lights to hide behind and (hits) we can just kick off our shoes and make these sidewalks home we'll write songs and sing for food and we'll never be alone (strummed) never be alone, never be alone, never be alone when we're with friends Outro and we'll never owe shit to anyone else no we'll never owe shit to anyone else no we'll never owe shit to anyone else no we'll never owe shit to anyone
