Verse 1:
A
He works a nine to five
E Ab
Then goes out with his friends on a Friday night
Dbm
Then repeats it all again
A
But he's doing fine
E Ab
Financially stable with a decent life
Dbm
But deep inside
Pre-Chorus:
A
He's always wanted more
E Ab
But too afraid to open up that door
Dbm A
He's 21 but he knows life is short
E Ab Dbm
And being poor is better than having regrets
Chorus:
A E
So he takes all the money that he has
B Dbm
To try and live a dream that he had
A E
All his friends start to think he's going mad
B -nc-
But he's all in and never looking back
Verse 2:
A E
She's living dime to dime, she works the whole week
Ab Dbm
Monday to Sunday night, hoping one day, oh
A
That her kids will thrive
E Ab Dbm
And never make the same mistakes that she made in life
Pre-Chorus:
A
She always wanted more
E Ab
Her three kids held her down to floor
Dbm A
Her husband left and now she knows for sure
E Ab Dbm
Her decisions were poor, but she won't live with regrets
Chorus:
A E
So she takes all the money that she has
B Dbm
Hoping that she'll raise her children better than that
A E
Oh, she can't live the dreams that she had
B -nc-
But she's all in and never looking back
Post-Chorus:
A5 -nc- B5
And where she ends up, oh, we don't know
-nc- Ab5
Will she ever reach her goals
-nc- Db5
And will he ever break the mold?
Outro: A5 B5 Ab5
