[Verse 1]
C GAverage
Bb F CLike I’ve never heard that one before
G BbSee, that one stupid word
F AmIs why I don’t act anymore
G FOne bad review
G FFrom someone you love
FmAnd suddenly it doesn’t matter who thinks you’re
[Verse 2]
C C7Above average
F Fm CAnd so you stick to writing nothing else
C7 F Fm CIf you never show off your only critic is yourself
E7 FBut now I’ve learned that
G AmI’m not the best
FSo if you need a failure
You can ask where the nearest is
FmI’ll say look no further than your favourite lyricist
[Bridge]
C C7 Eaug FMe, the kid waking up from a dream
C C7 FmRealising his music is the worst he’s ever seen
C E AmAnd who cares if it was from when he was 15
FmIt deserves the same judgement
GIt deserves the same judgement
[Verse 3]
C C7 Eaug FGod, it’s so hard to be good for your age
C C7 FmWhen you know that your work’s not good enough for the stage
C EaugYou got the skills of an idiot
AmWho got too much praise
FAnd your whole damn career just turns into a phase
FmAnd the fire in your heart is beginning to fade
[Outro]
C E7/B AmAnd you’re one critique away from considering trading
FYour piano for money
AbIsn’t it funny?
C Eaug F FmHow average can cut so deep
