[Em]
[Cm] [G]
[C] Living the good life full of goodbyes
My eyes are on the gray [G] sky saying I don't want to come home tonight
Yeah [C] and I'm higher, far forward
I don't even [Gm] remember but my friend passed out [C] in the [Gm] override
Oh [C] I'm from the city of 915
Where all the [G] girls were pretty and they're down for the hype
All my boys [C] were with me growing [Em] up for [C] the night
[G] But who cares, who cares, this is [F] our year
[C] So wake me [G] up in the spring while I'm high off my American [F] dream
[C] We don't always say [G] what we mean
It's a lot of damn [C] American pain
Maybe the end is near but I've been waiting all year
[G] To get the hell up out of here and throw away my [C] fears
I'm so faded, I'm so [Em] faded off [C] of all the things that I've [G] taken
And maybe I'm not really drunk, maybe I'm really good at faking
I'm from the [C] city of [Em] [C] 915
Where all the [G] girls were pretty and they're down for the hype
And all my [C] boys were with me growing [Em] up for the [C] night
[G] But who cares, who cares, this [F] is our year

Oh I'm [A] proud to be [F] American
[C] So wake me up [G] in the spring while I'm high off my [F] American dream
[C] And we don't always say [G] what we mean
It's a lot of damn American [C] pain
My youth is the [G] foundation of me
