High School In Jakarta

[G]Didn’t you hear Amanda’s moving back to Colorado? It’s 2013 & the end of my life

[Em]Freshman year’s about to plummet just a little harder But it didn’t cause we kissed on that Halloween night

I [G]bleached half my hair when I saw Zoe on your Vespa It was orange from 3% peroxide, thanks to you

I [Em]needed a good cry, I headed right to Kendra’s I hated you and I hoped to God that you knew

 

Now there’s [G]drama (drama) Found a club for that Where I met ya (met ya) Had a heart attack

Yadda yad[Em]da At the end, yeah we burned, made a couple U-turns, you were it til you weren’t

 

[C]High school in Jakarta, sorta modern Sparta [G]Had no chance against the teenage suburban armadas

[Am]We were a sonata, thanks to tight-lipped fathers Yeah [Em]living under that was [D]hard, but I loved you harder

[C]High school in Jakarta, an elaborate saga [G]I still hate you for making me wish I came out smarter

[Am]You love/hate your mother, so do I could’ve [Em]ended different, then again we [D]went to high school in Jakarta

 

[G]Got a group assignment, I’ll be at Vall’s place You don’t text at all and only call when you’re off your face

[Em]I’m petty and say, “Call me when you’re not unstable” I lie and tell you I’ll be getting drunk at Rachel’s

I was[G]n’t She doesn’t even drink But I couldn’t have you sit there and think

That you’re [Em]better, cause you’re older Are you better, now that we’re older?
