Am                   Bm             Em
Private school kids sipping hot toddies
                               Am
Caring how you're using your money
                           Bm
Catchin' up 'cause you're scared of slipping up
      Em
Your daddy bought the beach 'cause your momma's
out of love

Am                               Bm
Always said that you would never play the game
Em
There you go, you put your old self to shame
Am                             Bm
Running 'round in circles just saving face
Em
Every minute that you fake (La-la-la-la)

Chorus:
                 Am                 Em
Tell me why you think it's so much fun
                   G                 D
To keep your image up but lose your touch
                   Am                 Em
You really seem to make your parents proud
                       G                 D
I'm glad they finally got their golden child,
golden child

No one wants third wheels at the party
Only here to be your cover story
Innocent 'til your parents get a whiff
You can call it what you want or you can call
it what it is

Always said that you would never play the game
There you go, you put your old self to shame
Running 'round in circles just saving face
The final straw's about to break (La-la-la-la)

Chorus

Am      Bm                  Em
You're living on a perfect record
                               Am
'Cause you've never been caught
     Bm                    Em
You think you control the future
                         Am
With your stocks and bonds
        Bm                 Em
You're betting it all for nothin'
                          Am
'Cause you never felt loss
        Bm                 Em
You're living by a broken mirror
Not who you think you are (Think you are)

Chorus

Golden child, yeah-yeah
Oh
