Intro

[F]

Living the good life full of goodbyes

My eyes are on the grey skies

[G]

Saying I don't want to come home tonight

[F]

Yeah, and I'm high up, off what?

I don't even remember

[G]

But my friend passed out in the Uber ride.

Pre-Chorus

[F]

Oh, I'm from the city of the 9-1-5

[G]

Where all the girls are pretty

And they're down for the hype

[F]

All my boys are with me

Going up for the night

[G]

But who cares, who cares

[F]

'Cause this is our year.

Chorus

[C] [G]

So wake me up in the spring

[F]

While I'm high off my American dream

[C] [G]

We don't always say what we mean

[F]

That's the lie of an American teen

[F]

Maybe the end is near

But I've been waiting all year

[G]

To get the hell up out of here

And throw away my fears

[F]

I'm so faded (I'm so faded)

[C]

Off of all the things that I've taken and

[G]

Maybe I'm not really drunk

Maybe I'm really good at faking

[F] [C]

From the city of the 915

[G]

Where all the girls are pretty

And they're down for the hype

[F]

All my boys are with me

[C]

Going up for the night

[G]

But who cares, who cares

[F]

'Cause this is our year

Chorus

[C] [G]

So wake me up in the Spring

[F]

While I'm high off my American dream (American dream)

[C] [G]

We don't always say what we mean

[F]

It's the life of an American teen (American teen)

[C] [G]

My youth is the foundation of me

[F]

Living life as an American teen (American teen)

[F]

American teen, oh yeah

[C] [G]

We don't always say what we mean

[F]

When we're high off our American dream

[C] [G]

My youth is the foundation of me

[F]

Oh, I'm proud to be American

[C] [G]

So wake me up in the Spring

[F]

While I'm high off my American dream

[C] [G]

And we don't always say what we mean

[F]

It's the life of an American teen (American teen)

[C] [G]

My youth is the foundation of me

[F]

Living life as an American teen (American teen)

[C]

American teen

[F]

American teen, oh yeah

[C]

American teenager

[G]

And I'll be living this dream with you

[C] [G]

We don't always say what we mean

[F]

When we're high off our American teen

[C] [G]

My youth is the foundation of me

[F]

Oh, I'm proud to be American
