Intro: B

Verse 1:
B                                   E
Inside jokes that I never know, but I

Still laugh until I cry
B                                       E
Group photos but I'm standing off to the side

I'm just camera shy

Pre-chorus:
       B                    Bmaj7
Always at the birthday parties (Always at the birthday parties)
    E                  Em
But never close to anybody

Chorus:
           B
I've been chosen last since the kindergarten
     Bmaj7
Walk in the grass and it's disregarded
E
Fast walk to the lunch table
  Em
And pack up before I'm ready to go
         B
I don't speak my mind, I just sit and listen
 Bmaj7
I'm there on time 'cause they won't know I'm missing
E
Sometimes I would rather stay home
Em
Than show up to be ignored and alone

Verse 2:
B                                     E
Carpool everywhere, but there's never room

For me to go too
B                                   E
Ride my bike like all of us used to do

Oh, I don't have a clue

Pre-chorus:
        B                      Bmaj7
Why I'm at the birthday parties (Why I'm at the birthday parties)
      E                    Em
When I'm not close to anybody

Chorus:
            B
I've been chosen last since the kindergarten
     Bmaj7
Walk in the grass and it's disregarded
E
Fast walk to the lunch table
    Em
And pack up before I'm ready to go
         B
I don't speak my mind, I just sit and listen
 Bmaj7
I'm there on time 'cause they won't know I'm missing
E
Sometimes I would rather stay home
Em
Than show up to be ignored and alone

Instrumental: B Bmaj7 E Em

Chorus:
            B
I've been chosen last since the kindergarten
     Bmaj7
Walk in the grass and it's disregarded
E
Fast walk to the lunch table
    Em
And pack up before I'm ready to go
         B
I don't speak my mind, I just sit and listen
  Bmaj7
I'm there on time 'cause they won't know I'm missing
E
Sometimes I would rather stay home
Em
Than show up to be ignored and alone
