I was a debater

I was in the chess club

Didn't have a swimming pool much less a true love

Found out the hard way that you can't live your Dad's dream

Had pretty thin skin to be in the machine

Then I found a guitar and the rest's a fanzine

E D end on G P.S. if you're 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 that's how it is on the recording. If you wanna play it acoustic using all open chords it sounds cool too. [email protected]
