Nick was a friend of mine

Em                F 
Ooh and you still bitch

I dressed in black today it represents

This phase I'm in 
                                G     Cadd9 G 
And what it was I can't believe 
                                   G7 
The stain glass your hiding behind 
                            C 
It's from a different life 
                                   G 
And what it was it's still in your dreams 
 
Pre-Chorus
Em                F

Chorus
              G 
So check your head 
                      C 
Set your eyes on your dreams

Bridge
    G 
You fell out of time with some distance to go 
     C 
It's not a design it's a talent show

She did would change my life 
C                    D                   G    Cadd9 G 
She just thought her life was a waste of time 
    C                    D 
And Nick worked hard to graduate 
    G      D/F#    Em 
And after that he died

He always thought high school was a waste of time
