Verse
A5 E5
Since youve been 15 youve were confused
F#5 D5
At the age its so hard to just be you
A5 E5
You got your friends, your records
F#5 D5
The only thing that makes you feel whole
A5 E5 F#5
Youre trying to figure it all out
D5 A5 E5
Sometimes you realise the fight is oh so futile
F#5 D5
When someone else is telling you your wrong
[Refrão]D5 A5
You know your right
G5
But no one seems to listen,
F#5 E5 D5
They say you're just a child,
A5
So you turn and fight,
G5
For me that is the only way
F#5 E A5 E5 F#5
To step to what they say is the upper hand,
D5 A5 E5 F#5
Don't let them take the upper hand
D5
Don't let them take the upper hand

You wanna go out and forget the day
Go out and just make your life seem real
Forget your mom and dad
Forget about your job, your home, your school
You take so much shit,
Your girl said it's over
You think about giving up
But don't you dare give up without a fight
You know you're right
But no one seems to listen,
They say you're just a child,
So you turn and fight,
For me that is the only way
To step to what they say is the upper hand,
Don't let them take the upper hand
Never let them take the upper hand
The upper hand
