VERSE 1
A5                    F5               G5
It starts with not questioning the answers
A5         F5                 E5
And giving up before you've begun
A5                  F5                   G5
It locks all the doors, increases the pressure
A5                            F5              C5
And in a flash your time is up before it's done
A5                    F5        C5
And you won't know how it can feel
            G5
To feel at all


CHORUS
         A5 F5 C5          G5 F5 A5
So I say no-o-o to status quo-o-o
F5                        C5
Who wants to be like the rest 
            G5      
And deny the best that I'm meant for
      A5  F5 C5              G5  F5 A5
I wil show-o-ow the status quo-o-o
       F5                          A5
Who wants to be normal I'll never conform
       C5             G5                  E5 A5 G5
I will be content to resent the status quo-o-o


VERSE 2
   A5                 F5
I'll kick down the walls around me
C5                    G5
They don't know how strong I am
  A5                F5
I'm not defined by boundaries
C5                G5        F5
They could never understand


CHORUS    
               A5 F5 C5               G5 F5 A5
I'm so much more-o-ore than status quo-o-o
     F5                                 C5                        G5                   
Who cares about being another pipe dreamer stuck on the bottome floor

[key change]
         B5 A5 D5             A5 E5 B5
And I know-o-ow it's time to go-o-o
             B5                             D5
so maybe I've gotten everything that I wanted
                      E5           A5
But I think that I might have made it so
          B5  A5  E5
When I said no no no
           D5  A5 B5
To status quo-o-o-o

[ G5   D5 ]    [ A5 ]  [ E5 ]

G5      D5    A5        D5
Cause I am a starship ranger
G5           D5     A5      D5
I'm gonna do everything I can
G5           D5              B5
To always be a starship ranger
             G5 D5 E5           G5 D5 E5
Cause it's everything, it's everything
G5  D5
I Am!
