Intro: (And first part of the verse)
 For the "5150" Part of the tab, I'll just call that "5150"

 Em                    C                  5150
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--0---------0--------1---------1----------1------ the 5150-----------|
G|------0---------0--------0---------0----------0--  is repeted--------| 3X
D|2---2-----2---2----2---2-----2---2------5---5------------------------| so its played 4x.
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------|

Repeated 5 times. Then again without the 5150.
On the third time singing starts.

It starts with not questioning the answers
And giving up before you've begun.
It locks all the doors increases the pressure
And in a flash your time is up before it's done.(Am starts playing)

(Strumming)
Am              C               F
And you wont know how it can feel
      (ring)Fm
To feel at all


         Am  C   Gsus4
So I say no--oh--oh
          G    Dm  Am
To status quo--oh--oh
F                           C
Who wants to be like the rest
             Gsus4               G(sus) C9
And deny the best that I'm meant for
         Am  C    Gsus4
I will show--oh--oh
           G    Dm  Am
The status quo--oh--oh
F
Who wants to be normal
C
I'll never conform
Am
I will be content to resent the status
Em  C   5150
Quo


C                C-F
I'll kick down the walls around me
Am                       Gsus4
They don't know how strong I am
C                 F
I'm not defined by boundaries
Am            Gsus4     F
They will never understand
              Fm
I'm so much more....


  [355333]   [577555]   [688666]
...oh--------oh----------ore
             F      [335543]  [355333]
Than status quo-----oh---------oh


[688866]                Bbm
Who cares about being another pipe dreamer
F                       Gsus4 G
Stuck on the bottom floor
       Am    C    Gsus4
And I know--oh--oh
             G   Cadd9  Am
It's time to go---oh---oh


            F                        C
So maybe I gotten everything that I want
                   Dm
But I think that I might've made it so
            F   F   Fm
When I said no, no, no

To status

Am C,C  G   Cadd9   Am
Quooo---oh---oh----oh!

Am, C, Gsus4, G

To always be a Starship Ranger
