[Verse 4]
              D
But now I'm a drop out                           
I guess I'll never make my 
A         G
mom proud
    A           G            
But I am pretty proud of what

I'm doing with my life now

[Chorus 2]
A           G              
I am pretty proud of how I 
        D
live my life now

[Bridge 1]
G            A
  And I have learned
        D                 Hm
To stop measuring my self-worth
       G                  A       
By the standards set by a culture 
               D
that I want no part of
G           A            D    
  If I had stayed on the path 
              Hm
  that they had made
     G               A       
Well I don't know if I would 
        D
have survived it

[Verse 5]
                D
So now I am not lonely
             A              G
Cause I have found a community
   A                        
Of folks who won't let this 
G
culture tell them
             D
Who they are supposed to be

[Verse 6]
           D
And I feel angry
                              
It's cause this system that's 
   A                G
obsessed with productivity
             A                
Has tried to tell us that the 
           G
value of a human can be 
measured
   D
In spreadsheets

[Bridge 2]
         A                 
Told the boys to be strong 
    G
and not to cry
         D*             A*      
Told the girls to just shut the 
     G*
fuck up
D*              A*           G*
  But we won't shut the fuck up

[Chorus 3]
        A                       
We will kick and scream till you 
      G                    D
stop telling us who we're supposed 
to be
A G                         
  Cause I'm not supposed to 
   D
  be anything
         A            G
But I am closer every day
                     D
To the person that I wanna be
D D A G A G D D (x2)
