[Verse 1]
A [tab] Dsus2 That I would have a bad trip, fall asleep and never wake F#m They told me back at school that it would happen E I believed it till I didn't A I told you that I was afraid Dsus2 Of stating my opinion in a clear and honest way F#m They told me in my youth it wasn't needed E Some thoughts are best deleted F#m E And everyone agreed it
[Chorus]
F#m E D I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E/G# A I don't know what I'm getting up for
[Verse 2]
A I'm not getting taller anymore A So when I fall Dsus2 It's always the same distance as before F#m You'd think that I'd learn to anticipate it E By the millionth time I ate it A And I told you that I wasn't scared Dsus2 That evеn if I fractured every bonе, I didn't care F#m I never told a lie so confidently E But you let me down so gently F#m E The concrete barely bent me
[Chorus]
F#m E D I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E/G# D I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E D One more year, then I'll look at the score F#m E/G# A I don't know what I'm getting up for
[Bridge]
E/G# Kindly tell me a lie Dsus2 Dm Will you look me in the eye F#m E And say it'll all be alright D5 In the end? A E/G# Kindly tell me a lie Dsus2 Dm Will you cross your heart and hope to die? F#m E It'll all be alright D5 In the end A E/G# Kindly tell me a lie Dsus2 Dm Will you look me in the eye F#m E And say it'll all be alright D5 In the end? A E/G# Kindly tell me a lie Dsus2 Dm Will you cross your heart and hope to die? F#m E Cross your heart and hope to die D5 Cross your heart and hope to die

[Verse 3]
A I told you that I was afraid Dsus2 That everyone around holds me in some secret disdain F#m That I was held a fool so far deluded E You told me that was stupid F#m E But could never really prove it
[Chorus]
N.C. D I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E/G# D I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E D One more year, then I'll look at the score F#m E/G# A I don't know what I'm getting up for F#m E D I don't know what I'm getting up for (I told you that I was afraid) F#m E/G# D I don't know what I'm getting up for (I told you that I was afraid) F#m E D One more year, then I'll look at the score F#m E/G# A I don't know what I'm getting up for
