D
I told 'em all where to stick it
I left town with a dime to my name
          G
Said I'm done with all of my fake friends
               Em
Self-righteous pawns in a losing game

Got my band and a light that won't go out
Been burning since the day I was born
So I'll cry just a little, then I'll dry my eyes
'Cause I'm not a little girl no more

Chorus:
 D                              Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
       G                               Em
And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind
D                               Bm
Some of us have to grow up sometimes
       G                               D
And so, if I have to, I'm gonna leave you behind

Stood in line for so long just to picket
Something I won't ever understand
Aren't you tired of always being mad at the world?
Won't you just admit you don't care?

And, lady, I don't want your pity
So don't feel sad for me
I got a love I would die for and a song to sing
Maybe we're both just living out our dream

Chorus

         G
We get along for the most part
           Em                      Bm
Me and reality, the light and the dark
              G
And we live alone
In two different worlds
           Em
Me and a fantasy,
                  Bm
And you and your memories
             G
But we get along
We get along
         Em
For the most part
         Bm
We get along
              G
Yea, for the most part
We get along
         Em
For the most part
         Bm
We get along
G
We get along
Em
We get along
