[Verse 1]
G G
Living the good life full of goodbyes
C C
My eyes are on the grey skies
Bm Bm D D
Saying I don't want to come home tonight
G G
Yeah, and I'm high up, off what?
C C
I don't even remember
Bm Bm D D
But my friend passed out in the Uber ride

[Pre-Chorus]
G G C C
Oh, I'm from the city of the 9-1-5
Bm Bm
Where all the girls are pretty
D D
And they're down for the hype
G G
All my boys are with me
C C
Going up for the night
Bm Bm D D
But who cares, who cares
G G
'Cause this is our year

[Chorus]
C C Bm Bm
So wake me up in the spring
D D G G
While I'm high off my American dream
G G C C
We don't always say what we mean
Bm Bm D D
That's the lie of an American teen

[Verse 2]
G G
Maybe the end is near
C C
But I've been waiting all year
Bm Bm
To get the hell up out of here
D D
And throw away my fears
G G
I'm so faded (I'm so faded)
C C
Off of all the things that I've taken, and
Bm Bm
Maybe I'm not really drunk
D D
Maybe I'm really good at faking

[Pre-Chorus]
G G C C
Oh, I'm from the city of the 9-1-5
Bm Bm
Where all the girls are pretty
D D
And they're down for the hype
G G
All my boys are with me
C C
Going up for the night
Bm Bm D D
But who cares, who cares
G G
'Cause this is our year

[Chorus]
C C Bm Bm
So wake me up in the spring
D D G G
While I'm high off my American dream
G G C C
We don't always say what we mean
Bm Bm D D
That's the lie of an American teen

[Bridge]
G G C C Bm Bm
My youth is the foundation of me
D D G G
Living life as an American teen (American teen)
C C Bm Bm
American teen
D D
Mmm, oh yeah
G G C C Bm Bm
We don't always say what we mean
D D G G
When we're high off our American teen
C C Bm Bm
My youth is the foundation of me
D D G G
Oh, I'm proud to be American


[Chorus]
C C Bm Bm
So wake me up in the spring
D D G G
While I'm high off my American (American dream)
C C Bm Bm
And we don't always say what we mean
D D G G
It's the lie of an American teen
C C Bm Bm
My youth is the foundation of me
D D G G
Living life as an American teen
C C Bm Bm D D
American teen (American teen)

[Outro]
G G C C Bm Bm D D G G C C
American Teenager
Bm Bm D D
And I'll be living this dream with you

[Chant]

We don't always say what we mean
Bm Bm D D
When we're high off our American teen
G G C C Bm Bm
My youth is the foundation of me

Oh, I'm proud to be American
