Verse 1:
                 E       Emaj7
I notice how she looks at me
                    E        Emaj7
But I pretend that I don't see
               Abm                  E (note)
It's easier if I let the tension subside

Verse 2:
                    E         Emaj7
I've seen it in the books I read
                 E       Emaj7
a magic that you cannot see
               Abm
There's no limitations
                  Aadd9
They wear it with pride

Bridge 1:
        Abm          B
But the characters I read
      Esus2            E
Never act or look like me
        B                                     Esus2 E
I can't depend on them to lead me through the right door!

Pre-chorus 1:
    Ebm                 E
And what's the point of falling
       D             Aadd9
When I know I'm only stalling
         D            Bsus4   B
'cause I have to go back home

Chorus 1:
                          Dbm
Where I'm just one in the herd!
                 B
Tripping over my words
                  Aadd9
Trying hard to go with the grain
            Bsus4        Cdim
Keeping the quirks in my brain


           Dbm
I'm on the brink of discovery
  B
I think
                Gbadd9
But what if I'm dreaming
               Bsus4 B
That's what it seems like

Chorus 2:
            Dbm
'cause this girl
                       Eaug  
Thinks I'm part of her world
             A           Am
And that new territory's scary


D
If I turn the handle
     A
Am I asking for a scandal
B                      E     Emaj7
Should I try to be ordinary?
             B (note) E
mmbaaaaaaah

Verse 3:
                     E      Emaj7
I've always been a little odd
                 E        Emaj7
The only pea inside the pod
              Abm
That's not an expression, I'm guessin'
(nc)
Oh well

Verse 4:
      A      Cdim  E        Emaj7
See that's exactly what I mean!
                     E     Emaj7
I'm just as awkward as I seem
                  Abm
Plus she makes me nervous
                 Aadd9
I hope she can't tell

Bridge 2:
Bsus4          B
What is it she sees?
        E
In this cluster-clump of me
(nc)   B                           D  E
        Or could it maybe be I'm going crazy
    Ebm           E
And hey, who am I kidding?
     D                  A
This isn't some sweet beginning
       D             Bsus4
Just a detour to the end

Chorus 3:
                 Dbm
Then back to the herd!
                 B
Tripping over my words
                  Aadd9
Trying hard to go with the grain
            Bsus4        B
Keeping the quirks in my brain


    Eaug   Dbm                   B
I'm on the brink of discovery, I think
                Gbadd9  A
But what if I'm dreaming?

Bridge 3:
   A
Do I rewind, induce amnesia?
Abm
        Pretend I didn't see her
A
        Succumb to stupid fear
Dbm       B           Gbadd9
Or just believe in my heart?
                   C  D
Why play a pa-art?

Chorus 4:
               Dbm
Why follow the herd?
                    B
Why not trust in my words?
                 Aadd9
I don't wanna go with the grain
           Bsus4       B
Why try to make myself plain?

    Eaug   Dbm                     B
I'm on the brink of rediscovery, I think
               Gbadd9
So what if I'm dreaming?
           B
I like the scene that I'm in

Chorus 5:
         Dbm                    Eaug
And this girl is a part of this world
                     A                 Am
The thought of being normal's far more scary

Post-chorus 2:
Gbm
I'll be brave and I'll be kind!

I'll make a choice and change my mind!
A
I'll mess up all the time
                                       Gb
They'll say I'm weird, but I'll be fine
         B                         E
And I'll be anything but ordinary!
