[BLC09]

good one

[notorious553]

hey man can i use youre song in my music video for my project in my subject? please

[stepharoo15]

this song brings back so many memories. i listened to this when i was a freshmen and now im a senior! its so true! to all lower classmen take pictures and live every moment in high school! it goes by so fast! i listened to this every year! never forgetting my high school years

[cesaaar012]

Can I sing this song at our talent show! We only got 5 months left of school, these past four years passed by so quickly..m seniors 2012,

[jordan51094]

Beautiful man... Great lyrics and voice.

[KramerPacer83]

I had close friends at my old highschool. Then I decided to repeat my sophomore year since I was moving away from my friends to go to a boarding school in a different state (North Carolina to Minnesota... Long ways away) This year was supposed to be my graduating year, and I'm hardly close to anyone at this new school even after a year and a half being here. All my old friends get to say goodbye and share tears at what was meant to be our graduation. It's truly painful since I love them a lot :(

[soidiedthencameback]

Dude awesome song kinda depressing but good. i havent even gotten through my 1st yr of high school and im depressed about it ending haha.

[brandonvachter]

Love this song, any way I could get the tabs for it?

needs a bridge before junior year IMHO. else it gets a tad repetitive. just a thought dude, not hard to write a bridge and makes songs 10x more interesting.

[justingarotte219]

This song is pretty true. I just graduated in 2010, and I remember saying how I always wanted to get out of high school, that I hated it and all that nonsense. Now, I miss it. If I could go back to Freshman year, I would. It all went by sooooo fast. :(

[sarah123me]

[InternetRockMusic]

this song is pretty sick, you should check out "High School Haze" if your looking for a good high school song

[sexysummer1018]

OMG! my seniors used this as their graduation song :)

[TheIbanezPrestige]

I'm in the same situation as you were... my time in school is over soon and I wrote a song about that, too... thank you for the inspiration. :)

[Emeraldrose26]

Not gunna lie, I tear up every time I listen to this. =( I hate goodbyes and moving on. These lyrics are awesome <333 This is deffinately going to be on repeat all this year ( senior year =[ )

Keep it up and keep posting AWESOME songs!! =D

On a side note, voice pitch and timing is well.

[theresaahuynh]

ahhh i loove thisss! this song would be perfecttt for my graduationnn. you should put it on itunes so i can buy it! :)

[laki94007]

I am now second year at high school.......and I am sensitive at second part when is saying: "We got involved and opened up

And made some more new friends

Friends we could rely on

To be there 'til the end"......'cause I think that at all people,friends and family are the on the first place........I will kill for my friend and family..........this is song about school years I know but.....don't u feel like that?.........p.s. song is awesome.....

[phatbirdy3689]

Awesome singing :D

[snickers2455]

@Essential15 ya except the part where you totally ripped off a vitamin C song.. or are you saying that is "original" too?

[Wolta]

@snickers2455 yet another youtuber who doesn't read the info box =P

[Essential15]

@snickers2455 lmao read the description kid. It transitions into that song at the end as a part of it being the "graduation song" I personally say in the description that the last part is vitamin C's graduation song. Calm down.

[kamphusbr]

@Essential15 class of 2011! Screw stupid people! :D

[PFDbassist]

@snickers2455 why don't you try to write a good original song instead of criticizing someone else's work? clearly he put some personal work into something he cares about. and no matter how good you think an original that you do is good, you more than likely got inspiration or what i guess you call "ripping off" from someone's work.

[creamiorange]

@snickers2455 lol why don't u read the description next time before talking

[spik3yKid11]

@snickers2455 I hate faggets like you that dont know what a description box is.

[Germantownmadien]

omg, your awsome! I cried my damn heart out man!!

[LewieFraz93]

[francinexiong]

hey, what's the chords for this song??? i really like it.

[Essential15]

@francinexiong Verses are: D, A, Bm, G.

Choruses are: Em, G, D, A.

Then at the end of the song when it transitions into Vitamin C's graduation song the chords are: D, A, Bm, F#, G, D, G, A.

Hope that helps!

[cdoghill]

@Essential15 what is your picking pattern, im kind of new to picking where i usually just strum so any help would be great, thanks

[fourthfloororange]

Oh yeah the verses sound really familiar...

Don't Stop Believing, You're Beautiful, Forever Young, Right Here Waiting, No One, Happy Ending, Lovesong, Where is the Love, Amazing, Where Ever You Will Go, Glycerine, Twenty Good Reasons, High, Soul to Squeeze, Sway, Cigarettes Will Kill You, She Will be Loved, With or Without You, At Your Feet, Not Pretty Enough, Let it Be, Under the Bridge, Man in the Mirror, Can You Feel The Love Tonight, Down Under, Waltzing Matilda, Take on Me, Save Tonight,

[fourthfloororange]

Africa, Self Esteem, Dammit, Apologize, Canvas Bags, Torn, Superman, Scar...

Those are the only songs that come to mind :)

[Essential15]

@fourthfloororange except some of those use the full progression of canon in D... so they'd be different. but it's no different than a song's chords being E, B, C#m, and Asus2. so... the list like triples there.

[ChadA23]

@fourthfloororange I take it you've seen the Four Chord Song comedy video as well?

[Antsworld12]

Wow, This Is A Great Song!! Very Sad:(
