Tom: D
D
You think you're something else, but you can't hide
That there's more to you than meets the eye
Em
Between the local brews and coffee shops and vinyl records
G
This wagon hopping is quite the endeavor
D
Long ago I stood right by
While you swung your arms from side to side
Em
I guess those trips we took to Warped Tour never really happened
G
You still owe me $40 for tickets
[Verse 2]
D
Flash back, 2006
A Linkin Park hoodie with some checkered kicks
Em
Posting on your MySpace dissing your haters
G
Blasting Papa Roach from your Motorola Razr
Bm Em G
A tough day of middle school has got you feeling down
Bm D G
Yet you're the coolest kid in town
[Chorus]
Bm Em
I remember, we all remember
G
You've had that same smug look since December
Bm D G
Indirectly braggadocios
You really thought we wouldn't notice?
Bm Em G Bm
A phase is a phase, but you're stuck in a maze
G
How long until the next one?
[Verse 3]
D
You learned about Hot Topic in 2008
Long neon hair, all the sudden real straight
Em
Playing breakdowns at the high school talent show
G
Nobody really gets it, itâs kind of embarrassing
D
Before you know it you start claiming edge
Double Xs are pretty hardcore I guess
Em
You break a girl's teeth, crowd-killing every week
G
I don't really get how you havenât gotten sued yet
[Spoken Interlude]
Bm Em
It's 2013 now and we're back to pop punk for some reason
G
You're also quite the social justice warrior
Bm D
Even though you called people "faggot" pretty regularly that previous summer
Em A
But good on you, progress is progress, I won't judge
[Chorus]
Bm Em
I remember, we all remember
G
You've had that same smug look since December
Bm D
Indirectly braggadocios
G
You really thought we wouldnât notice?
Bm Em G Bm
A phase is a phase, but you're stuck in a maze
G
How long until the next one?
[Spoken Interlude]
D
I'm also pretty sure there was an EDM phase
G
Somewhere along the way
Bm
It was like four straight weeks of just EDM music (Music music?)
A
He also starting vaping, which was kind of weird, out of character
(You said music twice)
[Outro]x2
D
What's next on the list?
It can't be that much better
G
Than a creepy-ass mustache and a DIY sweater
Bm
If this is the life that the want, then so be it
A
I'll be waiting here next year admiring the spirit
