This song is just the same 4 chords again and again, though it slows down at one point. I will show the chords
throughout the whole lyrics though for those of you who prefer reading tabs that way.
The chords are D, A, Bm and G
 Intro:
   D    A    Bm     G(x2)
 DThis maze is getting to my Ahead
 Swear I've seen this wall before
 No Bmbooby traps, a picket fence
 Just Gdaisies and a pantry door
 There's Dcaffeine on the floor
 AAdventure in the air
 Who knew your Bmheart could beat so freakin' fast
 That you Gforget to comb your hair?
 And for the Dfirst time
 The Aground here
 Makes  Bmperfect Gsense
 And for the Dlast time
 I'm Awaiting for
       Bm (one strum)            G (one strum)
 These fireworks to fall down on me
 G (regular strumming again)
 Fall down on me
D  A  Bm  G
 Your Dbaby teeth will fall away
 But your Atongue and taste will still complain
 You'll Bmsmile knowing someday soon that
 GThings will change, God, I hope they change
 And I Dhope someday you find
 The Along awaited peace of mind
 BmEither that or something you can Ghold
 'Cause if Dyou were hoping I could save the Aday
 Shoot me in the Bmleg
 I swear that you'll feel Gbetter
 Or if Dyou'd simply rather run aAway
 I completely underBmstand
 Fly away and and Gblow to smithereens like a fire
 My Dfeet are getting tired
 And my Aheart is getting torn, oh,
 And I Bmrealize it's too late for me
 I've alGready been born
 And for the Dfirst time
 In a Along time
 I can Bmthink straight
 And I'm Gnot sure that I like it
             D (single strum)
 It's like a bed
 These sheets are Anew
 But when they're Bmtaken off
 It's like I'm Gcovering you
 'Cause you are Dscared
 Where monsters Alurk
 Wish you could Bmfly away
 And expGlode just like a firework
 And Dlet's just say for old time's Asake
 We'll pull it really Bmfake
 Smile with our Gaccents
 But I Dhave to say 
 That this one takes the Acake
 Are you calling me a Bmliar?
 Well, I'll show you, you Gyellow-belly jerk
(The beat slows down at this point - when you change to the A chord - but the chords remain the same)
 It'll be like Dthree, two, one
 I'm Agone
 Out to the great unBmknown
 For a moment, I'll be Gfree
 'Til I'll expDlode
 'Til I'm like oneA  
 'Til I'm like oneBm  
 One of them GfireworksD  
 'Til I'm like oneA  
 'Til I'm like oneBm  
            G         D (one strum)
 One of them fireworks

This song is just the same 4 chords again and again, though it slows down at one point. I will show the chords

throughout the whole lyrics though for those of you who prefer reading tabs that way.

The chords are D, A, Bm and G

Intro:

D A Bm G

(x2)

D A

This maze is getting to my head

Swear I've seen this wall before

No booby traps, a picket fence

Just daisies and a pantry door

There's caffeine on the floor

Adventure in the air

Who knew your heart could beat so freakin' fast

That you forget to comb your hair?

And for the first time

The ground here

Bm G

Makes perfect sense

And for the last time

I'm waiting for

Bm (one strum) G (one strum)

These fireworks to fall down on me

G (regular strumming again)

Fall down on me

D A Bm G

Your baby teeth will fall away

But your tongue and taste will still complain

You'll smile knowing someday soon that

Things will change, God, I hope they change

And I hope someday you find

The long awaited peace of mind

Bm G

Either that or something you can hold

D A

'Cause if you were hoping I could save the day

Shoot me in the leg

I swear that you'll feel better

D A

Or if you'd simply rather run away

I completely understand

Fly away and and blow to smithereens like a fire

My feet are getting tired

And my heart is getting torn, oh,

And I realize it's too late for me

I've already been born

And for the first time

In a long time

I can think straight

And I'm not sure that I like it

D (single strum)

It's like a bed

These sheets are new

But when they're taken off

It's like I'm covering you

'Cause you are scared

Where monsters lurk

Wish you could fly away

And explode just like a firework

D A

And let's just say for old time's sake

We'll pull it really fake

Smile with our accents

But I have to say

That this one takes the cake

Are you calling me a liar?

Well, I'll show you, you yellow-belly jerk

(The beat slows down at this point - when you change to the A chord - but the chords remain the same)

It'll be like three, two, one

I'm gone

Out to the great unknown

For a moment, I'll be free

'Til I'll explode

'Til I'm like one

G D

One of them fireworks

'Til I'm like one

G D (one strum)

One of them fireworks
