D       G       Bm     A      (repeat x3 throughout spoken)
 
[BRICE NOBES, spoken]
There's this girl I really like, but our first date was disastrous.
I mean, horrific. It was... catastrophic. But I should text her, right?
 
[MAN, spoken]
I'm not your father
 
[BRICE, spoken]
I already texted my father. Here's what he said
 
[MAN, spoken]
"A word of advice, Brice"?
 
N.C.
[BRICE, spoken]
Yeah
 
[MAN]
D                      G
"Don't go getting your hopes up
             Bm                          A
They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up
D               G
Best avoid disappointment
          Bm                    A
Hope is a rash, pessimism's the ointment."
 
 
G       D      A      (repeat x2 throughout spoken)
 
[BRICE, spoken]
Typical dad, always looking out for me.
Ever since I was little, he'd sit me on his knee and he'd say
A
"Son, never try, and you can't fail.
A
Never ask and they can't say no.
A          N.C.
And when in doubt, pull your head in!"
 
 
[BRICE & MAN]
D                     G
Don't go getting your hopes up
             Bm                          A
They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up
D                G
Best avoid complications
             Bm                   A
No good ever came from great expectations, woah
D
     Never stick your neck out
G
     Never stick your neck out
A
     Remember
D
     Never stick your neck out
G                               A      A
     Never stick your neck out
 
[BRICE]
D               G
So that's how I lived my life
Bm            A
If I start to feel too brave
   D                  G
Or think that I might take a chance
Bm              A
Take a leap, go my own way
  D                G
I hear my father's voice
         A         A
And he'd say, he'd say
 
 
[BRICE, MAN & MALE COMPANY]
D                     G
Don't go getting your hopes up
             Bm                          A
They will be dashed, your dreams will be smashed up
D              G
Best avoid disappointment
          Bm                    A
Hope is a rash, pessimism's the ointment, woah.
D
     Never stick your neck out
G
     Never stick your neck out
A
     Remember
D
     Never stick your neck out
G                               A      A
     Never stick your neck out
 
 
[MALE COMPANY]
     D  G  Bm   A
Woah oh oh oh
     D  G  Bm  A
Woah oh oh oh oh
 
 
[BRICE]
Bm                    A
All this time thought I was fine
G             D             A
Floating on a gentle sea
Bm                A
Then a girl named Mariel
G              D        A
Came along and capsized me
D              G
Now I'm riding on a wave
Bm                  A
I've never felt so alive
   D            G
Or free
   Bm           A
Or free
 
 
[MAN, spoken]
D
     Text her!
 
 
[BRICE, spoken]
G
     You think?
 
 
[MAN, spoken]
Bm        A
Send that text!
