VERSE 1
Am F G
It starts with not questioning the answers
Am F Em
And giving up before you've begun
Am F G
It locks all the doors, increases the pressure
Am F C
And in a flash your time is up before it's done
Am F
And you won't know
C
How it can feel
G
To feel at all
CHORUS
Am F C G F Am
So I say no oh oh to status quo oh oh
F C
Who wants to be like the rest
G
And deny the best that I'm meant for?
Am F C G F Am
I will show oh oh the status quo oh oh
F Am
Who cares about normal? I'll never conform
C G Em Am G
I will be content to resent the status quo oh oh
VERSE 2
Am F
I kick down the walls around me
C G
They don't know how strong I am
Am F
I'm not defined by boundaries
C G F
They could never understand
CHORUS
Am F C
I'm so much more-or-or
G F Am
Than status quo oh oh
F C G
Forget about being another pipe dreamer stuck on the bottom floor
Am F C
And I know oh oh
G F Am
It's time to go oh oh
F Am
So maybe I've gotten everything that I wanted but I think that
C G
I might have made it so
Am G F
When I said no, no, no
C Em F
To status quo oh oh
