Expectations

Am                          F
I keep on having this dream where I'm seventeen
C                              G
Slipping through the cafeteria trying not to be seen
Am                          F
I see my brother, he's sitting there with some kids
C                              G
He smiles at me and waves, I fake a smile and sit
Am                          F
Down at the table, but something's off and I know it
C                              G
'Cause when I try and say something nobody seems to take notice
Am                          F
I kinda like it, but then I start to feel strange
C                              G
Like the time I went on Amazon to buy myself a date

Am                  F
When did things get pixelated?
C               G
I can't keep my concentration
Am                  F
I've lost my imagination
C               G
To such great expectations

        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected
             Am                  F     C                 G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)

Am                  F
I keep a rolodex inside of my head of
         C                              G
All the times I had a chance to just be honest, instead
         Am                                     F
I made a joke to changed the subject because my confidence said
              C
"Hey, listen, if you mess this up,
They're gonna judge you, my friend!"
     Am                          F
I'm living in a state of pure paralysis, see
          C                           G
I like to think, think, think, but my action is weak
        Am                           F
My interaction is bleak, if life's a herd, I'm a sheep
              C                                  G
Guess I'm not really that much different than at age seventeen

Am                  F
When did things get pixelated?
C               G
I can't keep my concentration
Am                  F
I've lost my imagination
C               G
To such great expectations

        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected
             Am                  F     C                 G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)

Am   F       C        G
 All of the things we wish we said
Am    F        C      G
 They drag me down until I'm dead
Am     F     C       G
 You say the best is yet to come
Am         F         C        G
 Can anyone figure out what's wrong with us?

        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected
             Am                  F     C                 G
From all the things that I never said (that I never said, that I never said)
