Introdução:
G
I hate this place,
C D G
I can barely keep the misery off my face,
D C
Yeah there's one place i much rather be,
D C
Taking transfiguration and arithmancy,
G C D
And hanging with my friends in the owlery,
G C
But instead i'm learning parts of speech,
D G
And trying not to fall asleep,
C D G
And avoiding the only girl in school who might like me,
(Pause)
G
It's so grotesque,
C D G
When the guy sitting next to me drools all over his desk,
D C
And i almost raise my hand to complain,
D C
But then i realize i wanna be doin' the same,
G C D
So i put my head down on my desk as well,
G C
And suddenly im learning a spell,
D G
To make my teacher's head swell,
C
But then he wakes me up,
D G
And i can't help but yell,
Engorgio!!
G C G
This isn't hogwarts this is a concrete box,
C G
And the pictures on the wall are never gonna talk,
C G C G
And the teachers don't care that the kids don't try,
C G
And the most magical thing we have is fluorescent lights,
C D
And they don't put you in hufflepuff if your not cool,
C D
Instead they sort you in the parking lot after school,
C D
And i think if i looked into the mirror of erised,
C D
I'd be wearing wizard robes of gold and red,
C D G
I'm not sayin' i'm not proud to be a nerd,
C D G
But public school ain't no place for a wizard
C D G
Yeah public school ain't no place for a wizard
(Pause)
G
Y'know whats gross,
C D G
When the lunch meat looks like three day old soggy toast,
D C
But as i ate it anyway i overheard,
D C
This guy i hardly know callin' me a nerd,
G C D
So i cast "sectum sempra" on him inside my mind,
G C
I wish there were house elves makin' my food,
D G
And everything was perfectly spiced,
C D G
And the only one being rude was the poltergeist,
(Pause)
G
And here's what's true,
C D G
I'd do pretty much anything to go to wizard school,
D C
I'd even call dolores umbridge my friend,
D C
If it meant i'd never have to go to gym again,
G C D
But i look around at all of this crap that's part of my life,
G C
No ghost stalkin' the halls,
D G
Or hangin' in the bathroom stalls,
C
And the stairs don't move,
D G
Cause there's no stairs at all.
G C G
This isn't hogwarts this is a concrete box,

And the pictures on the wall are never gonna talk,
C G C G
