A G#? F#m E
Brian apparently only plays two string power chords (EA), even on an acoustic... This
way is better (imho), providing you can hit the G#? thing.
It is technically a G#/E if you are wondering.

A G#? F#m E A
G#? F#m E
You are water twelve feet deep and I am boots made of concrete
A G#?
We'll wear cool clothes that show some skin,
F#m E
Flash our fakes, we'll both get in
A G#?
Now we're dancing, we're so drunk
F#m E
We are so cool, we are so punk
D A, G#?, F#m, E
And yes, we can keep living like this.
D A, G#?,
F#m, E
As long as you're here I will live like this.
E
Since when did...
F#m D A
Since when did "I wanna hear your voice" not become a good excuse?
F#m D A
Calling you three in the morning, laugh at sleep that we'll both lose
F#m D A
Maybe college won't work out, I can come live at your house
F#m D A
I'm supposed to be at class now but my roommate just passed out
F#m D A
And I cannot get in my room, get all my books and what I need
F#m D A
You're all I need but I am pretty sure your parents will never see
F#m D A
I'll let it be, 'cause it was never meant to be
F#m D A
I'll let it be.

I get left out...

I get left out of every plan they make

That is what I have to do

Be the only kid from high school who is still in love with you
