Expectations

Am                          F
I keep on having this dream where 
I'm seventeen
C                            
Slipping through the cafeteria 
  G
trying not to be seen
Am                          F
I see my brother, he's sitting there
 with some kids
C                              G
He smiles at me and waves, I fake a 
smile and sit
Am                          F
Down at the table, but something's 
off and I know it
C                              G
'Cause when I try and say something 
nobody seems to take notice
Am                          F
I kinda like it, but then I start to
 feel strange
C                              G
Like the time I went on Amazon to 
buy myself a date


[Pre-Chorus]
Am                  F
When did things get pixelated?
C               G
I can't keep my concentration
Am                  F
I've lost my imagination
C               G
To such great expectations


[Chorus]
        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected

             Am                 
From all the things that I never 
 F     C                 G
said (that I never said, that I 
never said)


[Verse 2]
Am                  F
I keep a rolodex inside of my head 
of
         C                         
All the times I had a chance to 
     G
just be honest, instead
         Am                        
I made a joke to changed the 
             F
subject because my confidence said
              C
"Hey, listen, if you mess this up,

They're gonna judge you, my friend!"
     Am                      
I'm living in a state of pure 
    F
paralysis, see
          C                        
I like to think, think, think, but 
   G
my action is weak
        Am                         
My interaction is bleak, if life's 
  F
a herd, I'm a sheep
              C               
Guess I'm not really that much 
                   G
different than at age seventeen


[Pre-Chorus]
Am                  F
When did things get pixelated?
C               G
I can't keep my concentration
Am                  F
I've lost my imagination
C               G
To such great expectations


[Chorus]
        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected
             Am                 
From all the things that I never 
 F     C                 G
said (that I never said, that I 
never said)


[Bridge]
Am   F       C        G
 All of the things we wish we said
Am    F        C      G
 They drag me down until I'm dead
Am     F     C       G
 You say the best is yet to come
Am         F         C        G
 Can anyone figure out what's wrong 
with us?


[Chorus]
        Am                  F
All the things that I never said
          C                G
They keep crawling back to me
        Am                  F
All the things that I never did
           C              G
They still haunt me in my dreams
         Am
All the years I've spent
         F
All the lives I've faked
        C                  G
Just to keep myself protected
             Am                 
From all the things that I never 
 F     C                 G
said (that I never said, that I 
never said)
