Intro
G - Cadd9
Verse
G Cadd9
When I was a kid, I’d fly around and Peter would mention
G Cadd9
Don’t be afraid to die, cause to die would be an awfully big adventure
G Cadd9
One day I stopped believing, now my friends say they’re so bored of me
G Cadd9
I used to be a real boy, with real plans, but now I’m just reality TV
Pre-Chorus
Em7
I used to be your knight in shining armor
D
And I’d rescue you from hell
Cadd9
Lately I stare into the mirror and I say to myself
Chorus
G Cadd9
I’ve spent too many nights watching “How I Met Your Mother” alone
G Cadd9
Now I’m searching for my yellow umbrella, hoping I’ll take her home
Em7 D Cadd9
Maybe I just wanna be legendary
Em7 D Cadd9
Yeah we all just wanna be legendary
Mute
ohh-oh
Verse
G Cadd9
I’m done chasing actresses, I’m full of love and they’re all full of shit
G Cadd9
And now I’m stumbling out the bar, one more fame monster story, I’ll be sick
G Cadd9
One day I stopṗed believing, and all at once the magic had died
G Cadd9
I just need to accept friends grow up, and lovers will lie
Pre-Chorus
Em7
Oh I used to be James Dean
D
Now its celebrity rehab hell

I swear that I could be amazing, I just need a little help
