Tom: Em
G B C
I didn't cry at graduation
G B C
Or when they screamed that we had made it
G B C
I think this town has expired on me
G B C
I've come to terms with all the bad memories
[Chorus]
G B7
In school is just a building
C
The people come and go
G B C
Yeah, one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
G B7 C
So, I won't be at reunion ten years down the road
G B7 C
But you'll see me, yeah, I bet you'll see me on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
[Verse 2]
G B C D
I hope my counselor gets fired
G B C
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's tired (I'm so tired)
G B C D
I can't believe I used to be caught up in what they say about me
G B C
In retrospect, I must admit, I've always felt so incomplete
G B C D
But this isn't even my hometown, I'm not even American
G C D
I honestly would rather drown than have to move back here again
G C D G B D
My ex is stuck in the past, he taught me to move on fast
[Chorus]
G B7
In school is just a building
C
The people come and go
G B C
Yeah, one day, this place will be fully unrecognizable
G B7 C
So, I won't be at reunion ten years down the road
D G B7 C
But you'll see me, yeah, I bet you'll see me on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
[Bridge]
G C
I wonder how long it takes for me to leave without a trace
G C
And for my mark on this town to be completely erased
G
Will they throw parties without me?
C
Will they ever feel sorry?
G C
For how they scarred me or forget all about me
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
(This is very unclear what they are saying, but the chords are there)
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
G B C
Billboards, on the billboards
[Outro]
G B C
I didn't cry at graduation
G B C
I need a permanent vacation
G
Wha, ha ha ha
[Spoken]
N.C.
I'm so excited for college
