Guess no, [D] maybe.
I don't [C] know.
Can you repeat [E] the quest?
[G] You're not the Boss of Me
[A] [C]
[D] [A] [G]
[B] [C] now [D] And you're not so big
[G] Life [Em] is unfair, so [C] I just stare [Am] at the stain on the wall [G] there.
The [Em] TV thin, but [C] ever since [D] we've moved in it's been [C] empty.
Why [D] I'm, why I'm [Em] in this world, there [C] is no point [Em] explained.
[G] You're not the boss of me
[C] [A] [G]
[E] [C] now, [D] and you're not [A] so [G] big.
Life [Em] is a test, but [C] I confess, I [D] like this mess I've made [G] so far.
Great [Em] on a curve, and [C] he'll observe, I'm [A] right below the [C] horizon.
[Am] Yes, [D] no, maybe [Em] I don't know, can [C] you repeat [Em] the quest?
[G] You're not the boss of me
[E] [C] now, [A] and you're not so big.
[G] You're not the boss of me now, [A] [C] and [D] you're not so big.

[C] [D] [A]
[G] [A]
[C] now, and [D] you're not so big.
[G] Life is unfair.
