[Verse]
                 Em7           G
This is where I broke my wrist

           D              Am7
Where I thought I could fly

                Em7     G
Thinking I was Superman

         D              Am7
So you know you can't cry

                      Em7           G
Cause I wanted to be just like them

             D              Am7
And save my city from crime

                C               D                        Em7
I wanted to be just like them, just like them, just like, them

                    Em7           G
Campbell's chicken noodle soup

           D              Am7
When you stay home from school

                 Em7           G
Remember watching MTV

                       D              Am7
When there was still music for you

                Em7           G
Just a kid on Cholla Street

              D              Am7
From my city built in the sand

                       C               D                 Em7
My father said "you'll be a man, be a man, be a man"

                       Em7           G
I guess Santa Claus is just not real

     D              Am7
And Batman can't fly

                 Em7           G
And nobody's invincible

           D              Am7
Because I know people die

                 Em7           G
I saw it on the news one day

           D              Am7
When the towers fell down

                     C               D                        Em7
September's not the same place now, same place now, same place, now

                     Em7           G
Now tell me what you wanna be

             D              Am7
Because you grow up too fast

                 Em7           G
Cut my hair and sag my jeans

           D              Am7
And never show up to class

                     Em7           G
Get ready cause it's time to leave

    D              Am7
So pack up your bags

                   C               D              Em7
And go be who you wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
