Biography:
Young the Giant are an American alternative rock band who formed in Irvine, California in 2004. The band consists of Sameer Gadhia (vocals, percussion), Jacob Tilley (guitar), Eric Cannata (guitar), Payam Doostzadeh (bass) and François Comtois (drums). The band's name is purposefully nonsensical; Gadhia explained it as a "leftfield idea" meant to evoke curiosity.
The band released their debut self-titled album, Young the Giant, on 25 January 2011, which was preceded by a digital-only release in October 2010.

[Verse 1]
Dm7
And so I've arrived
F/C
With gold in my eyes
Fmaj7 Amadd11
Are you paying attention?
Fmaj7 Amadd11
[Chorus 1]
F C Am
I was searching for something as I watched you run
Em Dm
I was sad when you said that you never really wanted some
F C Am
Were you looking for someone as I watched you go?
Em Dm
I am mad because I don’t know what you used me for
F C Am
I've been looking for so long in Amerika
Em Dm
Throw my hands in the air
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7 Amadd11
Flash, fade in
Fmaj7 Amadd11
Say you care, but you don't
Fmaj7 Amadd11
You know I hate it
Fmaj7 Amadd11
It's a rich kid game and it'll blow up with a throw
That's all that it really is
[Chorus 2]
F C Am
I was searching for something as I watched you run
Em Dm
I was sad when you said that you never really wanted some
F C Am
Were you looking for someone as I watched you go?
Em Dm
I am mad because I don’t know what you used me for
F C Am
Always talking about one day in Amerika
Em Dm
Same old story, oh you want glory son
F C
I've been looking for so long
Am
But you cut me out
Em Dm
Throw my hands in the air cause I...
[Verse 3]
Fmaj7 Amadd11
Your palace
Fmaj7 Amadd11
All the friends you own
Fmaj7 Amadd11
So jealous
Fmaj7 Amadd11
Felt that rich kid pain what it is to be alone
C
It’s all it really is
[Chorus 3]
F C Am
I was searching for something as I watched you run
Em Dm
I was sad when you said that you never really wanted some
F C Am
Were you looking for someone as I watched you go?
