The Downtown Fiction - Where Dreams Go To Die
Intro: G D C
G D
Your breath hangs in the air.
Em
It's freezing, but the bus ain't there.
C
You're wishing for someone to stop this.
G D
Back in class again,
Em
You feel just like an empty pen,
C
Loss for words and void of purpose.
G D C
They cornered you, there's nowhere to get out.
How? How?
Em C
They'll try to convince you
G D
and tell you that they're right.
Em C
They'll break you and beat you
G D
and steal away your life
Em C G D
And tell you that you're nothing and they'll never get it right,
Em D
But high school's the place where dreams go to die.
Inst: G D C
G D
Teacher thinks you're rude
Em
Says, "I dont like your attitude".
C
Well maybe you're just condescending
G D
But bring us up to follow rules
Em
And throw us all in cubic rooms
C
But we're not gonna sit by idle.
G D C
We're getting out, we're gonna find our way
Hey, hey.
Chorus
G D
Well, we'll be more than they'll ever be
Em C
Just bitter from their own failed dreams.
G D Em C
They're desperate, and do anything to bring you down.
G D
Well, we'll do more than they ever did
Em C
Talk down to some poor old kid.
G D C
We are the ones, the ones who made it.
Em C
They'll try to convince you
G D
and tell you that they're right.
Em C
They'll break you and beat you
G D
and steal away your life
Em C G D
And tell you that you're nothing and they'll never get it right,
Em D
But high school's the place where dreams,
Em D
But high school's the place where dreams,
Em D G D C
But high school's the place where dreams go to die.
