         B                          F# 
She's dropping out of school cause she don't need the grade, 
      G#m               E 
The colors in her hair don't seem to fade, 
   B                  F#                G#m              E 
I get dressed up when I go out but she gets dressed down 
B              F# 
She's 17 I've told her I'm 20, 
   G#m                        E 
I couldn't take her out cause Mom's got no money, 
      B                     F#                         G#m          E 
It's stuff like this that makes me wish that I could change somehow 
B        F#       G#m E            
Sitting here at home, .... it's obvious 

B        F#      G#m            E           
She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard cause 
      B              F# 
She makes me feel, makes me feel, 
       G#m                        E 
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard, 
       B      F#    G#m          E               
Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down 
      B             F# 
She makes me think, makes me think, 
       G#m                       E                    B 
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again 

(F# G#m) 
          E                    B 
Cause I'm trying too hard again 

(F# G#m E) 

She's got a rude tattoo but she keeps it covered, 
I play guitar but she's into drummers, 
She's seen my face around but she doesn't even know my name 
I pierced my lip so she thinks I'm cool, 
I ripped my jeans and I dropped out of school, 
I followed her around the town but she thinks that I'm a weirdo now 
Sitting here at home, it's obvious 

She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard cause 
She makes me feel, makes me feel, 
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard, 
Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down 
She makes me think, makes me think, 
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again 
Cause I'm trying too hard again 
     
    F#       G#m 
But now, who knew? 
      E                  B    
She's in the crowd of my show 
     F#     G#m 
Nothing to lose, 
            E                     B     
She's standing right in the front row 
    F#      G#m 
The perfect view, 
E                    B 
She came along after all, 
            F#                       G#m   E    B    
But here's something that you should knoooooooow 

(Same as other chorus') 

You're so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard cause 
She makes me feel, makes me feel, 
Yeah she makes me feel, makes me feel 

She's so out of reach, and I'm finding it hard cause 
She makes me feel, makes me feel, 
Like I try, like I try, like I'm trying too hard, 
Cause I'm not being me, and it's getting me down 
She makes me think, makes me think, 
That I try, that I try, that I'm trying too hard again 
Cause I'm trying too hard again
