Verse 1:
G        B           C
I didn't cry at graduation
G              B                    C
  Or when they screamed that we had made it
G              B          C
  I think this town has expired on me
G            B                  C
I've come to terms with all the bad memories

Chorus:
   G                B7
In school is just a building
    C
The people come and go
          G                    B          C
Yeah, one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
      G             B7         C
So, I won't be at reunion ten years down the road
           G               B7                C
But you'll see me, yeah, I bet you'll see me on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards

Verse 2:
G           B              C     D
  I hope my counselor gets fired
    G                B              C
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's tired (I'm so tired)
  G               B                 C                         D
I can't believe I used to be caught up in what they say about me
   G             B                C
In retrospect, I must admit, I've always felt so incomplete
    G               B                C             D
But this isn't even my hometown, I'm not even American
  G                                C                       D
I honestly would rather drown than have to move back here again
G                       C    D G            B               D
  My ex is stuck in the past,  he taught me to move on fast

Chorus:
   G                B7
In school is just a building
    C
The people come and go
          G                    B          C
Yeah, one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
      G             B7         C
So, I won't be at reunion ten years down the road
D          G               B7                C
But you'll see me, yeah, I bet you'll see me on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards

Bridge:
         G                           C
I wonder how long it takes for me to leave without a trace
           G                          C
And for my mark on this town to be completely erased
                G
Will they throw parties without me?
     C
Will they ever feel sorry?
    G                      C
For how they scarred me or forget all about me
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards

(This is very unclear what they are saying, but the chords are there)
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards
G          B  C
Billboards,   on the billboards

Outro:
G          B           C
  I didn't cry at graduation
G          B           C
  I need a permanent vacation
G
Wha, ha ha ha
