[Verse 1]
F#m D            A       E
  I do remember learning
F#m          D         A    C#
It came and went real fast
        F#m            D
But I'm wasted now on confidence
     A         E           F#m               D        A
I'm busy, I'm hesitant to spend my precious time in class
E  F#m       D                    A
    I run a hamster wheel called Gamut
 F#m           D             A
Wonder what my old friends think
         F#m            D                A
They're swimming in the koi pond at the mall and yelling through the glass
     F#m          D      A
"You are an opportunist dick"

[Chorus]
      Bm              A
I'm alive and I'm on fire
D                A
    I’ll have a cider
D             A             D
I will speak for my generation
        A          D
Famous by association
            A   D          A D
I'm twenty one, I'm twenty one

[Verse 2]
 F#m       D                   A               E
I weigh a hundred and fucking something pounds
F#m               D       A     E
    That makes me almost good
       F#m          D
It is nice to be a hero
          A            E            F#m           D         A
But it's better to be anything that anyone could want in a woman

F#m               D               A
     My Sittoo's watching me and laughing
 F#m               D       A
Slumly, you're a grown-up now
          F#m           D
You don't have to be an ingenue
      A                E
And there is nothing wrong with you
   F#m                    D       A
As long as you make your family proud

[Chorus]
         Bm                 A
You're alive and you're on fire
D                   A
    Why are you so tired
D                 A E     D             A
   You're twenty one,    you're twenty one
D              A      E    D                A D
   Can you believe it oh,    you're twenty one

[Outro]
Bm              A               Bm
   Salt of the earth, vinegar, piss
           A             Bm
Pillar to post insisting this
               A       E         Bm
Man, I can be here and not of it
           A E D
I'm twenty one
