Darren Criss - Status Quo Tabs

Status Quo – Darren Criss

it with a capo on VII, but if you are a woman it’s pretty low to sing so I suggest you
play it without capo ;) I did this by ear, so feel free to correct me if I made any 
mistakes. I’ve tabbed out the beginning of it, the rest is just chords. It shouldn’t be too hard
to figure out the rhythm by listening to the video. Hope you have fun with this!

So I say no-o-o to status quo-o-o
     F                     C
Who wants to be like the rest
             Gsus4               G   E7
And deny the best that I'm meant for
         Am|F|C             G|Dm|Am
I will sho-o-ow the status quo-o-o

Who wants to be normal, I'll never conform

They will never understand

Who cares about being another pipe dreamer
F                   Gsus4  G
Stuck on the bottom floor

And I kno-o-ow it's time to go-o-o
               F                        C
