Status Quo
For the beginning notes, it starts on Em and is between the fourth and second
strings, then it goes to C and is between the second and fourth strings, and then
to D, and is between the third and second strings. You should be able to figure them out.
Em G C D D
It starts with not questioning the answers
Em G C D D
And giving up before you've begun
Em G
It locks all the doors
C D
Increases the pressure
Em
And in a flash
G C
Your time is up before it's done
Em G C D
And you won't know how it can feel
D
To feel at all

Em C G D Am Em
So I say no to status quo
C G
Who wants to be like the rest
D
And deny the best that I'm meant for
Em C G D Am Em
I will show the status quo
C
Who wants to be normal
G
I'll never conform
D Bm C D (C)
I will be content to resent the status quo
Em G
I'll kick down the walls around me
C D
They don't know how strong I am
Em
I'm not defined by boundaries
G D
They will never understand
D- Em C G
I'm so much more
D Am Em
Than status quo
C G
Who cares about being another pipe dreamer
D
Stuck on the bottom floor
Em C G
And I know
D Am Em
It's time to go
C G
So maybe I've gotten everything that I wanted
D
But I think that I might have made it so
Em C G
When I said no, no, no
Bm Am Em
To status quo
G A D
Cause I am a starship ranger
G D A D
I'm gonna do everything I can
G A Bm
To always be a starship ranger
D
Cause it's everything
A
Everything
D (slide up) G C A D
I Am
(I completely made up the I Wanna Be reprise part, so sorry if it doesn't sound very good.)
