[Verse 1]
Am                         C
David has a bachelor’s and master's degree
Dm                              E7
David’s married, soon to have a family of three
Am                           C
David makes six figures, and what about me?
Dm               E7
 Yeah, call me a wannabe
Am                                   C
Mom says, “Ditch the hobbies, find a job to pursue”
Dm                                    E7
Dad says, “Don’t go chasing dreams if you can’t go through”
Am                        C
“David couldn’t do it, so neither could you”
Dm                E7
 Now I’ve got something to prove
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       F               Dm
‘Cause I’m so sick of “second best”
E7              Am
I’m so sick of “not impressed”
Dm        G
 This family’s obsessed
C               E7
 With validation and reputation
 
 
[Chorus]
Am
 American dream (american dream)
Dm
 Tell me, what’s the price of perfection?
G
 Tell me why I crave your affection
     E7
When excellence is expected the praise is a luxury
Am
 American dream (american dream)
Dm
 Why do my achievements define me?
G
 Why does life feel so damn confining?
        E7
When success is respected there’s no room for mediocrity

[Verse 2]
  Am                     C
I overcompensate in everything that I do
  Dm                                 E7
I bring home all the trophies that I won just for you
           Am                  C
You see a starving musician in debt from tuition
Dm          E7
 I’m never enough for you
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
       F              Dm
‘Cause I’m so sick of being stressed
E7              Am
Working hard at your request
Dm        G
 This family’s obsessed
C               E7
 With validation and reputation

[Bridge]
F       G       E7      Am
 You’ve lived a life of sacrifice
F  G       E7       Am
 Nothing I do could dare suffice
F     G          E7                   Am
 I’ll never stop trying and trying to be enough
F           E7sus4    E7
 Enough for you
