Verse 1
S[C]ongs when they're true, are all dedi[Am]cated to you
In this inv[F]isible world I choose to live in
A[C]nd if you believe that for now I un[Am]derstand
Why words mean so much[F] to you
They'll never be ab[C]out you
[C]Maybe you're young without youth
Maybe you're [Am]old without, knowing anything's [F]true
I think you're young wit[C]hout youth....
Pre-Chorus
T[G]hen you contract the Am[F]erican dream
You ne[Am]ver look up[G] once
[G]You've contracted Am[F]erican dreams
[Am]I require you to [G]stop and look up.
Chorus
[C]Sing a [G]song about [Am]myself
Keep singing a [F]song about m[C]yself
Not some in[G]visible w[Am]orld[F]
Verse 2 - C Am F C
Constantly searching to find something new
But what will you find when you think that nothing's true?
Maybe it's that nothing is new
So you let me hear songs that were written all about you
Because songs weren't written for you
They'll never be about you
Pre-Chorus
T[G]hen you contracted Am[F]erican dreams
You ne[Am]ver look up[G] once
[G]You've contracted Am[F]erican dreams
[Am]I require you to [G]stop and look up.
Chorus
[C]Sing a [G]song about [Am]myself
Keep singing a [F]song about m[C]yself
Not some in[G]visible w[Am]orld[F]

Keep singing a [F]song about m[C]yself
Not some in[G]visible w[Am]orld[F]
