[Intro]
D G D A D G D A D x2

[Verse 1]
D                       G
The usual morons were fighting outside that place
D                     A
Inside the posing was rife
D                   G
I wasn't ready like you to accept them
    D             A          D
As peers for the rest of my life

[Verse 2]
D                         G
Poised for a picture that no one was taking
D                              A
You'd hang on their words as a rule
D                         G
I'd never bought that but still was afraid
        D             A            D
To get caught on the wrong side of cool

[Chorus]
            G      A
Time to go sober again
          D                  G
Same old faces and nothing is new
         D           G
Leaving today I'd no right to go say
       D                   A       D
That I hate what they're doing to you

[Verse 3]
D                                  G
The only one you'd ever wanted to be was yourself
D                    A
But they had to have more
D                                 G
They told you to change what you thought to combine
          D         A            D
With the image that most of them wore

[Verse 4]
D                            G
You said if I stayed I might win their approval
    D                          A
And that would mean so much to you
D                            G
I'd say I'll be back but for now all I know
D          A                     D
Is I need something different to do

[Chorus]
            G        A
Time to go sober again
         D                     G
Same old faces and nothing is new
         D           G
Leaving today I'd no right to go say
       D                   A       D
That I hate what they're doing to you
