F Living the good life full of goodbyes C My eyes are on the grey skies G Saying I don't want to come home tonight F Yeah, and I'm high up, off what? C I don't even remember G But my friend passed out in the Uber ride F C Oh, I'm from the city of the 9-1-5 G Where all the girls are pretty And they're down for the hype F All my boys are with me C Going up for the night G But who cares, who cares F C 'Cause this is our year Chorus: G So wake me up in the spring F C While I'm high off my American dream G We don't always say what we mean That's the lie of an American teen Maybe the end is near But I've been waiting all year To get the hell up out of here And throw away my fears I'm so faded (I'm so faded) Off of all the things that I've taken, and Maybe I'm not really drunk Maybe I'm really good at faking From the city of the 9-1-5 Where all the girls are pretty And they're down for the hype All my boys are with me Going up for the night But who cares, who cares 'Cause this is our year Chorus C G My youth is the foundation of me F C Living life as an American teen (American teen) G American teen F Mmm, oh yeah C G We don't always say what we mean F When we're high off our American teen C G My youth is the foundation of me F C Oh, I'm proud to be American Chorus: So wake me up in the spring While I'm high off my American (American dream) And we don't always say what we mean It's the lie of an American teen My youth is the foundation of me Living life as an American teen American teen (American teen) American Teenager And I'll be living this dream with you We don't always say what we mean When we're high off our American teen My youth is the foundation of me Oh, I'm proud to be American | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsAm  C  E  F  G  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
