Verse 1
G 
D 
G 
Taught
young,
the worldâ€™s wisdom
Bm 
I   told lifeâ€™s a game,
the earth will be your stadium
G 
Be alert, pay attention
Bm 
(One day) Even your friends
will become the competition
G 
Trust no one but do remember this,
Bm 
never burn any potential bridges
G 
Know whoâ€™s who,
and what they can do for you
Bm 
And donâ€™t feel bad causeâ€™ in the end
theyâ€™re gonna do it to you too
G 
Remember lifeâ€™s not fair
In order to maintain,
Bm 
your gonna have to let you sensitivity be trained
G 
A machine more than a human being
Bm 
What you say doesnâ€™t always
have to be what you mean
G 
Tell them what they want to hear
if itâ€™s to your benefit
Bm 
And words beyond closed
doors are insignificant
G 
Push yourself, never be satisfied
Bm 
Even if you donâ€™t get it,

Verse 2
at least you died knowing you tried
G 
Bm 
G 
Born, live, strive, succeed
Bm 
Gain it all, bye,
G 
Bm 
G 
now itâ€™s time to leaveâ€¦
Bm 
Now, all we see is now

Verse 3
G 
Taught young, the worldâ€™s wisdom
Bm 
Begin to pay attention and make
my own observations
G 
All of the kids working hard
for admiration
Bm 
Trying their best not to meet
their social expiration
G 
Kind of hard in a world this finicky
Bm 
Easily praised and yet
destroyed just as quickly
G 
I guess me and this world must not be compatible,
Bm 
cause I donâ€™t want its approval to feel valuable

Verse 4
G 
Bm 
So whoâ€™s next to climb the wall of success,
just to see how good the top truly gets
G 
Bm 
Chasing lies disguised as going somewhere only to
G 
arrive and realize itâ€™s really no whereâ€™
Thatâ€™s even if you get
Bm 
there in the first place
G 
D 
What an incredible let down weâ€™re bound to face
G 
Bm 
when we substitute purpose for cheap counterfeit
Too busy trying to succeed in life that
G 
Bm 
G 
Bm 
G 
we forget to live it
Bm 
G 
Bm 
G 
Bm 
G 
You can live in the
infinite or give in to the immediate
Bm 
Gain it all but someday
youâ€™ll have to leave it
G 
This world is temporary
and itâ€™s heart is selfish
Bm 
Think to yourself, is this what wealth is
But now, all we see is now and now is not a bad
G 
Bm 
thing but now does bring tomorrow then
Now becomes then
Moments escape,
new ones replace them
G 
Donâ€™t want to face the
end still searching
Bm 
Asking what in this world
did I ever find worth in
G 
What could be worse than
Bm 
life of wasted years
Nothing lasting, nothing true, nothing dear
G 
I fear losing beauty in
pursuit of bigger things
Bm 
I fear a broken home courtesy
of the American dream
G 
Maybe thatâ€™s just me with my emotions on my sleeve,
Bm 
G 
Bm 
but one way or another we all wear what we believe
