[Verse 1]
A
I remember barefoot creek
E
And rolled up huckleberry jeans
D
And posters hanging on the wall
D
Of heroes that would never fall
[Verse 2]
A
Summer nights, kick the can
E
Huffy bikes and Peter Pan
D
But baby, this ain't Neverland
D
No baby, this ain't Neverland
[Chorus]
A D
Yeah, maybe life's not what I thought it'd be
A D
It's nothing like my childhood fantasies
F#m
It's harder than I could've known
E
But higher than my hopes could've flown
A D
And better than I ever could've dreamed
A E F#m D
More villains and sad endings I suppose
A E A
But I'll take the thorns for this beautiful rose
[Verse 3]
A
Well, I heard you could make God laugh
E
By telling him the plans you have
D
And now I know that to be true
D
Cause I could never dream of you
[Verse 4]
A
Praise the Lord, there's something more than
E
What we think we're fighting for
D
Just think what we'd be missing
D
If we only got what we were wishing
[Chorus]

Yeah, maybe life's not what I thought it'd be
