I don't know what to do

I don't know what to say
Em
My mind is killing me
F# D
These numbers aren't going straight up
Maybe if I talk about

Some things I don't really wanna talk about
Em
I'll make some money,
then I'll go on tour,
F# D
so I don't have to go to school anymore.
Things just really aren't that bad
Em
I got a nice mom
And I got a cool dad
F#
I just stay in my room too long

But I finally got a girlfriend, and she's the bomb.
