*INTRO*

       A                     C#5
You're sitting here; in your cap and gown
         E5             D5
all your loved ones are just so proud.

    A                  C#5
And we would love to inspire you
    E5                     D5
but someone needs; to just give you the truth.


*VERSE*

    A                    C#5
For the past 18 years; your life's been pretty smooth;

       E5                           A         D5  (the rest is the same)
Let's take a moment and reflect on; all you've had to do.

You've rolled outta bed; and strolled to the living room
and watched Cartoon Network while your mom made waffles for you.

Your laundry; was magically cleaned.
And your dad's back pocket was an ATM machine.

Your life's biggest worry; was what to wear to the prom.
And your only regret was that incident - with the stinkbomb.

*PRE CHORUS*

E5
But, do you hear that subtle sound?
D5 HOLD
it's the sound of reality about to slap the taste out yo' mouth!

*CHORUS*
                     A
(Now) You're on your own
                 D5
Don't screw this up.
               E5
You're on your own.
          A
Good luck. (You're gonna need it.)


*VERSE*

You're young and now you're free; the world is your oyster
We have no clue what that means...but let us paint a picture of your future:

You're gonna eat alotta Hot Pockets; and you're thinking "that sounds great!"
well, get back to us in 6 months; when you're had 378.

As soon as you move out; you know what you parents are gonna do?
They're gonna turn your bedroom into an exercise room that they never use.

*HOLD D5*

And you won't use lockers in college. And this might be a total bummer-
There are no yearbooks either; you actually have to say-"have a great summer."

*PRE CHORUS*
Do you hear that KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK?
That's personal responsibility about to put you in a head lock

*CHORUS*
You're on your own
You should be scared.
But we can tell
You don't care. Why don't you care? You should be frightened right now.
*PRE CHORUS*
Do you sense that gentle breeze?
it's the category-5 hurricane of adulthood about to HIT YOU UP SIDE THE HEAD WITH A TREE.

*CHORUS*
You're on your own
Don't screw this up.
You're on your own.
Good luck. (You're gonna need it.)
