Intro: F A Dm Bb

Verse 1:
F           A         Dm         Bb
  I have no motivation, I don't even wanna try
F              A         Dm             Bb     (nc)
  What's after graduating? Work hard, retire, and die
F           A                 Dm            Bb
  I don't wanna live that life, rather drop out than get by
F           A         Dm              Bb   (nc)
  Working a mediocre, average xxxxxxx nine-to-five

Chorus:
F          A              Dm                Bb
  And I know it's what my parents want from me, but I don't
F           A            Dm               Bb
  So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, Mom
F            A             Dm             Bb
  That I'm a deadbeat, the failure of the family, but
F          A      Dm               Bb
  I didn't ask to be here, so just leave me alone

Interlude:
F
  I told you not to go out last night!

Verse 2:
F           A                     Dm                      Bb
  My apologies that I don't wanna be what you want me to be
        F                 A
I'm sorry I'm not a prodigy
                Dm                Bb
Rarely got good grades, no A's or B's
                F                A
Yeah, I'm hardly getting by on a daily basis
 Dm                     Bb
But I got a dream, so I gotta chase it
   F                    A
Never gonna be who they want to see
Dm                  Bb
All my life, I know I'll be saying

Chorus:
F           A         Dm              Bb
  That I know exactly what my parents want, but I don't
F           A            Dm               Bb
  So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, Mom
F            A             Dm             Bb
  That I'm a deadbeat, the failure of the family, but
F          A      Dm               Bb
  I didn't ask to be here, so just leave me alone

Interlude:
F
  Now get out of my sight, you little—

Verse 3:
F          A          Dm               Bb
  I'm a delusional freak who's chasing made-up dreams
F             A            Dm                Bb
  Most people give up at twelve, but now I'm twenty-three
F            A           Dm              Bb
  I'm from another planet, they'll never understand it
F            A               Dm                 Bb
  Everyone's getting degrees while I still have nothing planned out

Chorus:
F          A         Dm              Bb
  And I know exactly what my parents want, but I don't
F           A            Dm               Bb
  So I won't go get that business degree, I'm sorry, Mom
F            A             Dm             Bb
  That I'm a deadbeat, the failure of the family, but
F          A      Dm               Bb
  I didn't ask to be here, so just leave me alone
               F
(I'm sorry, Mom)
