verse 1:          
 
B           E 
Dedication, my occupation 
F#                    E 
What the fucking fuck am I thinking 
B                    E 
Everyoneâ??s drinking and I'm sinking 
F#           E                             G#m 
Counting 182 lights are blinking on the screen 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
 
G#m           C# 
No shit as a matter of fact 
       E                            B 
I wish I would've dropped out, wish I hadn't slacked 
    G#m                      C# 
But I stayed in school with mediocre grades 
          E                             
While everybody else was out getting laid

All my friends are getting fucked up right about now 
B                        E 
Slamming beers down and starting fights 
F#                          E 
Everyone I know is getting fucked up right about now

verse 2: 
 
B             E 
Adulteration, it's an infliction 
F#                         E 
Thatâ??s what's at the bar, itâ??s what Iâ??m missing 
B                E 
A new concoction won't get me hopping 
F#                   E 
But Iâ??m here working so I can buy a new jet ski 
 
 
Pre-Chorus 
 
G#m           C# 
No shit as a matter of fact 
       E                            B 
I wish I would've dropped out, wish I hadn't slacked 
    G#m                       C# 
But I stayed in school, got married way too young 
E 
And when you get your jet ski can I come along?
