[Verse 1]
[C]Jus[Dm]t turn yo[C]ur back on me
It seems that I work better that [G]way
[C]It's fun[Dm]ny how thi[Bb]ngs never cha[C]nge
Fuck you, your friends, your ways
There's nothing left to say for yourself
Make [F]distance,
[Bb]move on an[Dm]d repeat[C]
Watcha gonna do?
When you've got [F]something [Bb]to prove,
nothing [Dm]to l[C]ose?[G]
[C]Watcha gonna do?
[Dm]Everyone's [Bb]counting on [F]you
I wanna stand [C]for something

[Verse 2]
[Am]real
[G](stand for something [C]real)
[F]Say something of substance,
be honest and shed [C]old [Am]ideals [G](shed old [F]ideals)
So [Dm]forget my [C]name if you
don't like the way
I've grown how I'm adjusting with [Dm]age
[C]I promise[F] it won[Dm]'t cha[C]nge a thing
See, I've been raised on teeth,
from always falling flat on my face
Sometimes it's just best [G]when I [F]bleed
I wanna stand [C]for something

[Verse 3]
[Am]real (stand for
[G]som[C]ething real)
[F]Say something of substance,
be honest and shed [C]old [Am]ideals (shed old ideals)
You'd [G]rather [C]run [F]than to
face this head on
Rather [C]hide your [Am]face than admit when [G]you're
wrong (you're wrong)
[F]Say something of substance, be honest,
don't live [Dm]life in [Am]fear
[G](Don't live life [C]in fear)
Watcha gonna do?
[F]Every[Bb]one's [Dm]counting [C]on you[F]
[C]

[Interlude 1]
[F][C][F][Bb][Dm][F]

[Verse 4]
I wanna stand for something [C]real[G]
[C]Say som[F]ething of substance,
be honest and shed old [C]ideals
You'd rather run away than
to [Em]face it [F]head on
Rather hide your [Am]face than [G]ad mit
when you're wrong (you're wrong)
[F]Say something of substance, be honest,
don't live [G]life in [Am]fear
(Don't live [G]life in [C]fear)

[Verse 5]
It's funny how [Bb]things [C]nev
[G]er change[C][Dm][Bb]
Some[Dm]times it's just [Bb]best when I bleed
