Young Adult Friction
By The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
[Verse 1]
D Bm
Between the stacks in the library
Gmaj7
Not like anyone stopped to see
D
We came and they went, our bodies spent
Dsus2 D
Among the dust and the microfiche
Bm
Dark winters wear you down
Gmaj7
Up again to see the dawn
D
In your worn sweatshirt and your mother's old skirt
A
It's enough to turn my studies down
[Chorus]
Bm G D D
Now that you feel, you say it's not real
A Bm G D
Now that you feel, you say it's not real
[Interlude]
D Bm Gmaj7 D
[Verse 2]
D Bm
I never thought I would come of age
Gmaj7
Let alone on a moldy page
D
You put your back to the spines, and you said it was fine
Dsus2 D
If there's nothing really left to say
Bm
You're taking toffee with your Vicodin
Gmaj7
Something sweet to forget about him
D
If you go your own way, I will go my own way
A
And we'll never speak of it again
[Chorus]
Bm G D D
Now that you feel, you say it's not real
A Bm G D
Now that you feel, you say it's not real
[Interlude]

Don't check me out, don't check me out
Don't check me ou-ou-ou-out
Don't check me out, don't check me out
Don't check me ou-ou-ou-out
