A       Bm
Push it out
        C#m
fake a smile
         D
Avert disaster
         A
just in time
          Bm
I need a drink
            C#m
Cause in a while
          D
Worthless answers from
            A
friends of mine
             Bm
It's dumb to ask
          C#m
cool to ignore
          D
girls possess me but
               A
they're never mine
          Bm
I made my entrance
        C#m
avoided hazards
           D
Checked my engine
I fell behind

A/C#   D

Chorus:
A             E
She makes me feel like
     F#m         D
it's raining outside
A              E
And when the storm's gone
        F#m        D
I'm all torn up inside
A           E         F#m
I'm always nervous on days
           D
like this like the prom
A           E
I get too scared to move
      F#m            D
cause I'm a fucking boy

Remember when I was in
The grocery store, now's my time
Lost the words, lost the nerve
Lost the girl, left the line
I would wish upon a star
But that star, it doesn't shine
So read my book with a boring ending
A short story of a lonely guy

Duh da, duh da, duh da, duh da duh, who fell behind
Duh da, duh da, duh da, duh da duh

Chorus:
She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this, like the prom
I get too scared to move, 'cause I'm a fuckin' boy

Duh da, duh da, duh da, duh da duh
Duh da, duh da, duh da, duh da duh

Chorus:
She makes me feel like it's raining outside
And when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside
I'm always nervous on days like this, like the prom
I get too scared to move, 'cause I'm still just a
Stupid, worthless boy...
