For the past 18 years; your life's been pretty smooth; 
     D                              A                 E 
Let's take a moment and reflect on; all you've had to do. 


    A                       C#m 
You've rolled outta bed; and strolled to the living room 
               D                                A             E 
and watched Cartoon Network while your mom made waffles for you. 


    A                       C#m 
Your laundry; was magically cleaned. 
     D                           A          E 
And your dad's back pocket was an ATM machine.  


      A                               C#m 
Your life's biggest worry; was what to wear to the prom. 
      D                                 A              E 
And your only regret was that incident - with the stinkbomb. 


     D 
But, do you hear that subtle sound? 
       E (hold) 
it's the sound of reality about to slap the taste out yo' mouth! 
   

                     A 
Now you're on your own 
                 F#m 
Don't screw this up. 
                D 
You're on your own. 
         A 
Good luck. (You're gonna need it.) 


        A                             C#m 
You're young and now you're free; the world is your oyster 
        D                                           A                E 
We have no clue what that means...but let us paint a picture of your future: 


              A                                         C#m 
You're gonna eat alotta Hot Pockets; and you're thinking "that sounds great!" 
      D                             A               E    
well, get back to us in 6 months; when you've had 378. 

         A                                 C#m 
As soon as you move out; you know what you parents are gonna do? 
          D                                      A                E 
They're gonna turn your bedroom into an exercise room that they never use. 

                     A                                         C#m

        D                                                A 
There are no yearbooks either; you actually have to say-"have a great  
   E 
summer." 

    D 
Do you hear that KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK? 
     E (hold) 
That's personal responsibility about to put you in a head lock 

                 A 
Now you're on your own 
                   F#m 
You should be scared. 
              D 
But we can tell 
       A 
You don't care. Why don't you care? You should be frightened right now. 


  D 
Do you sense that gentle breeze? 
  E (hold)

                     A 
Now you're on your own
