G x4
πΈ Verse 1:
C
I Called the house to see if anyone was home
G
Question the silences, the negative response
C
Stayed to see the sunrise raising hell over the square
G
Didn't lose the sense of promise laced upon the air
C
Education was a simple learning curve
G
Ruined by the lack of anything to use
C
Of knowing what to say and what to lock away
G
Pay attention for detention's here to stay
πΈ Chorus:
Em D G
It took so long to find all the answers through the lies
Em D G
It's been so long that I don't know if it's alright
πΈ Verse 2:
C
Problematic interest never fails to impress
G
Score cards for everyone, you wear them out to dress
C
Badge of honor, true to code and true to form
G
Buried underneath all these expectations
C
If there was any kind of picture that I could paint for you
G
I bet you any money that the numbers wouldn't stick for all I know
C
I'll take some credit for myself if I can
G
And walk away from this whole scene a happier man

It took so long to find all the answers through the lies

It's been so long that I don't know if it's alright
πΈ Outro:

It's alright, it's alright
G Em D
it's alright, it's alright
G
it's alright
Em D C G
It took so long to wait until the end
