Expectations chords by Arrested Youth

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
A minorAm             FF
I keep on having this dream where I'm seventeen
C majorC               G+G
Slipping through the cafeteria trying not to?be?seen
A minorAm             FF
I see my?brother, he's sitting there with some?kids
C majorC               G+G
He smiles at me and waves, I fake a smile and sit
A minorAm             FF
Down at the table, but something's off and I know it
C majorC               G+G
'Cause when I try and say something nobody seems to take notice
A minorAm             FF
I kinda like it, but then I start to feel strange
C majorC               G+G
Like the time I went on Amazon to buy myself a date

Pre-Chorus:
A minorAm         FF
When did things get pixelated?
C majorC        G+G
I can't keep my concentration
A minorAm         FF
I've lost my imagination
C majorC        G+G
To such great expectations


Chorus:
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never said
     C majorC        G+G
They keep crawling back to me
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never did
      C majorC       G+G
They still haunt me in my dreams
     A minorAm
All the years I've spent
     FF
All the lives I've faked
    C majorC         G+G
Just to keep myself protected
       A minorAm         FF   C majorC         G+G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)


Verse 2:
A minorAm         FF
I keep a rolodex inside of my head of
     C majorC               G+G
All the times I had a chance to just be honest, instead
     A minorAm                   FF
I made a joke to changed the subject because my confidence said
       C majorC
"Hey, listen, if you mess this up,

They're gonna judge you, my friend!"
   A minorAm             FF
I'm living in a state of pure paralysis, see
     C majorC              G+G
I like to think, think, think, but my action is weak
    A minorAm              FF
My interaction is bleak, if life's a herd, I'm a sheep
       C majorC                 G+G
Guess I'm not really that much different than at age seventeen

Pre-Chorus:
A minorAm         FF
When did things get pixelated?
C majorC        G+G
I can't keep my concentration
A minorAm         FF
I've lost my imagination
C majorC        G+G
To such great expectations


Chorus:
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never said
     C majorC        G+G
They keep crawling back to me
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never did
      C majorC       G+G
They still haunt me in my dreams
     A minorAm
All the years I've spent
     FF
All the lives I've faked
    C majorC         G+G
Just to keep myself protected
       A minorAm         FF   C majorC         G+G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)


Bridge:
A minorAm  FF    C majorC    G+G
 All of the things we wish we said
A minorAm  FF    C majorC   G+G
 They drag me down until I'm dead
A minorAm   FF   C majorC    G+G
 You say the best is yet to come
A minorAm     FF     C majorC    G+G
 Can anyone figure out what's wrong with us?


Chorus:
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never said
     C majorC        G+G
They keep crawling back to me
    A minorAm         FF
All the things that I never did
      C majorC       G+G
They still haunt me in my dreams
     A minorAm
All the years I've spent
     FF
All the lives I've faked
    C majorC         G+G
Just to keep myself protected
       A minorAm         FF   C majorC         G+G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)
