Anthem for American Teenagers

INTRO:  G# % F4 F Fm -> 2X


                 G#
Pieces that are showing lead to the unknowing
              Fm
Pieces of our lives taking up our time
                     G#
Was it always how it is? Did history insist
                     Fm
that everything we'd need would be everything we see? 

(Chorus)
G#
   You'll never lose
             F4      F      Fm
Never lose before we go, we all should know that
G#
you'll never lose 
             F4      F      Fm                G#    G#/C
Never lose before we go, we all should know that

             G#
Carousel's around me and no one here has found me
                  Fm
I don't think you saw the parts that only are
                     G#
I'm leaning on my instincts guide me to the meaning
                Fm
Everything you said filling up my head

(repeat chorus)
 
     D#7M
When memories only hurt you and they're taking over
Cm7
Let me on the inside I'll be a shoulder
D#7M
Memories only hurt you they're taking over
Cm7
Let me on the inside I'll be a shoulder 
G#     G#11+     G#   G#7M  F°   F6(9)  Fm7
Now    it's    like     I   al - ways   saw   it

     D#7M
Let me on the inside I'll be a shoulder
Cm7
memories only hurt you they're taking over
D#7M
Let me on the inside I'll be a shoulder
Cm7
Memories only hurt you they're taking over


(repeat chorus)
