Verse 1:
              F
I separate my dreams
From adolescent schemes
Trying to find a 
Bb
way to work it out
               F
I'm lying in a gaze

I"m sloping through a maze
                Bb
No one hears my voice
I scream and shout
             F
The possibilities
The birds and all the bees
               Bb
The volleyball team
The girl scouts
                   F
And all around the world
To every boy and girl

The school bus is a hurse

The weekend is a prize

That I wait for
                     F
I guess I"ll see the nurse
Before it all gets worse
                  Bb
I'm planning my escape 
before the bell
                   F
It really hurts my brain
Those calls are such a strain
The difference between
Bb
my of then and hell


(Repeat Refrain)
