State Champs "Around The World And Back" feat: Ansley Newman of Jule Vera

[@shadypenguinn]

I was gonna leave a witty comment about how incredible Derek's voice is, but Charlie killed any chance of that, my goodness. Derek's voice could bring it back to life, though.

[@thedoctor2099]

***** dude, thanks for posting this on Twitter, it's amazing

[@Zac19811]

Shady likes pop punk! Awesome!

[@thedoctor2099]

Zac19811 Yeah! He's played State Champs and Abandoning Sunday on his streams before, among other things :D

[@shadowdusk9486]

+shadypenguinn Have I ever thanked you for exposing me to this awesome band? And don't get me started on this song! Thank you so much for tweeting this out!

[@rymesyt851]

+shadypenguinn most of the time, I find State Champs Songs through you. Nice to reverse this once and find you in a State Champs song instead :D

[@jed2542]

Word cannot and will not ever be able to describe just how beautiful this song is. State Champs are literally incapable of making a bad song and for that reason alone they are my favourite band. They deserve so much more respect and attention than they recieve.

[@florentinacunningham8430]

Hi jade

[@applehazeva2739]

Same! Best band ever for me!

[@vicdarockstar]

Yeah they're making history. Pop punk history

[@adalieband]

I’m falling and is scraring me is my favorite part

[@CharlieViking95]

Derek's voice is the equivalent of jesus swooping down from the sky and making heavenly love with your ears all night long. This man's vocal talent is light years ahead of any other modern, contemporary pop punk band.

[@lillydenicola6310]

+Charlie's Drum Corner I couldn't agree more

[@TheJokesOnYouBitch]

give Broadside a listen, bud.

[@lillydenicola6310]

Broadside is my friend's brother's band. Theyre up there too. Both fucking amazing bands.

[@TheJokesOnYouBitch]

+Lilly Denicola dopeeee

[@aevdw47]

This is the most accurate description of his voice and their music I could've asked for

[@BySyphlex]

Chords for y'all: Intro is bottom three strings of an A Power chord (x02200) and then this E chord (x02100). Verse is E (022100) and A power (x02200) x2 Pre chorus is C# (x46600) B(x24400) and A (x02200) x2 Chorus: C# (x46600) B(x24400) and A (x02200) x4 B (x24400) A(x02200) x2 (You can go back to the B chord when Derek says History) Intro again Verse again Prechorus again Chorus again Bridge: A (x02200) E(022100) C(x46600) B(x24400) x2 (Listen to timing in this bit, threw me off at first) Tidal wave verse: A (x02200) E(022100) C(x46600) B(x24400) x3 [A (x02200) B(x24400) This is the "And we'd fall apart before I say goodbye" part] Prechorus again (But only play the second half, so each chord once) Chorus again. Bridge again. End on C#. Hope this helped. I tried my hardest to explain it, if any of you need a hand comment and ill probably make an Ultimate Guitar post later on tonight. As for the strumming pattern, let it come naturally, you should just be able to feel it.

[@ALex-dp6wh]

YOU GUYS NEVER DISSAPOINT

[@Sara-kd3pp]

I love this song so much,it reminds me a lot of my non-existent precedent love story.

[@KiaraBilyk]

Sara OMG same!

[@anthonylopez7314]

You guys have gotten me through some tough times. Anytime I'm feeling sad or anxious, i can listen to the entire Finer Things album and it is impossible to not to be happy. Because of you guys my motto in life is "I won't let my life get so critical". I only hope I can inspire others with my own music as you have with me. Continue to make music and keep rock alive!

[@griffynthompson]

State champs has never disappointed me and will never. They have so much passion for their music and fans...state champs for Band of the year. And around the world and back for album of the year.

[@inyourownwords265]

didn't think the title track for the album would be the slow jam on it! love it

[@joemorales7000]

Same!!!

[@basicbeauty3624]

their voices go so well together omg

[@malakirovelto497]

Beautiful song. One of my favorite acoustics by them. The singing, the music, and the girl singing to it just adds on to the emotion he expressed into this song. Great work guys

[@NecrosVideos]

You guys are gonna kill me with all this good music coming out.

[@scarlettjadecain9122]

Me and my husband used this song as our first dance at our wedding, we were in a long distance relationship and this was the most perfect song for it 💜 thanks guys for writing the best goddamm music

[@eastcoastpest]

scrolling the comments tonight and my man and i are using it as ours! :')

[@RobForg]

Amazing

[@michaelbarron5585]

Holy shit... This song just turned my day around 😭 It's so perfect and their voices are like heaven 🙏🏼

[@lillydenicola6310]

They're literally the best of the best in pop punk. They're making their way to the top. Been here since the very beginning& never leaving.

[@tjisatotalsellout490]

They should release a full band version of this too. That would be sick.

[@ghastlyshimmer]

Nice! Every pop punk band should have acoustic songs with a girl featured in it Neck Deep - a part of me All time low - remembering Sundays A Day To Remember - If it means a lot to you etc

[@otislaurence9393]

sleeping with sirens -

[@CravingLam]

Finally.. I found it after so long

[@Hunterbiden1]

State champs write and perform pure gold. Can't wait to see you guys the 17!

[@waronalekoba421]

I heard this song at Starbucks today and I had to get it.😭❤️

[@James-my9jt]

Warona Lekoba OMG that’s so awesome!!!! Awwww! 💕💕🥺🥺

[@kuker7536]

I heard this song at Indomaret 🙄

[@Rizz3n]

This song's got me even more pumped for tomorrow evening. Finally seeing you guys live.

[@goodnightmoon]

DEREK'S VOICE IS SUCH PERFECTION

[@cm8695]

This album is going to set the new standard for pop punk albums...

[@vicdarockstar]

I think this is going to be my wedding song

[@AtNightmareBeach]

This has three likes and I feel special because less than 100 people have listened to this. Holy hell, Derek. Your vocals.

[@khrisnakhristian5419]

+The Great Expectations he used to be doubted then everyone gave them a chance to shine, here they are! :D

[@rachelkrats5569]

Saw state champs twice and met them once Derick is a saint such a sweetheart and he used to live 30 mins from my hometown. I love this song but it reminds me of my ex which was my first love makes me sad everytime I hear this piece but its beautiful this song ugh it's just a reminder of my first love 😍😍😍

[@eloiselignos]

I cannot stop listening to this track, this album is easily going to be the greatest pop punk album of 2015.

[@TheNeuman]

One of the best acoustic songs as of recent.

[@gabrielmudrey]

And December by Neck Deep

[@EchoHawkinz]

+TheNeuman Yes, "as of recent" because nothing can beat "Clairvoyant" IMO.

[@gabrielmudrey]

My favorite by far is Through Two Hearts by The Wonder Years but Clairvoyant is great as well. Shout ot to "If it means a lot to you" too

[@gabrielmudrey]

Holy shit! Just listened to this song and it's awesome, thanks bro

[@gabrielmudrey]

Will definitely check them out

[@chloebecca]

This is just ugh words cannot describe how beautiful this is

[@gracesomo3099]

"Sometimes I can't help but say we're making history.." OMG FUCKED ME UP!

[@jaseyraeTV]

I'm such a sucker for bands featuring female singers. This is perfection!

[@TheSkyEatwell]

Absolutely love this. It's so nice to here a slightly slower song from them and it just goes to show that they can basically nail every song they do 👌❤

[@mads2319]

State Champs is one of the best pop punk bands out there

[@cassiereinhart6403]

this song is perfect in every way

[@sydneyberlekamp7387]

THIS SONG IS PERFECTION.

[@itsayh]

He kind of sounds like Alex Gaskarth in this.

[@kianalujan9590]

Derek has my favorite voice of all time! I just absolutely love this song.

[@bradlaplante]

I'm honestly super excited for the new State Champs record. Pop-punk kicked ass in 2015. As It Is released an amazing debut record to start, Knuckle Puck won me over in the summer, Neck Deep & The Wonder Years might as well be AOTY. Seaway is releasing their sophomore record. NOW HANDGUNS ARE RELEASING SOMETHING NEW. This year just kicks major fucking ass.

[@conorpatrickoneill2100]

Any love for the new pentimento release??

[@conorpatrickoneill2100]

Any love for the new pentimento release??

[@stewslife4578]

Holy. Mother of Pop/Punk.

[@lifeisamazingwithouteffort2952]

I'm falling inlove and it's killing mehee i love that part!

[@julyuhhh6385]

Life is Amazing Without Effort same

[@amirulmukminin4562]

Been around the world and back this year Told myself I wanna face this fear But I don't think I can stand on my own She's got eyes like spring, legs like the summer Everybody says she looks just like her mother But I think she wants that left alone There's too many ways to say goodbye But it's quite the opposite this time Sometimes I can't help but say I'm falling in love and it's scaring me It came to me in a dream Now all that's left is our empathy But this is just the life I ordered One step back and two steps forward Sometimes I can't help but say We're making history Been around the world and back this year I never wanted to be so sincere I'm not a hero or a saint But don't push me away When you believed in me it brought us together Everybody says that it won't last forever Close your eyes, don't cut the ties, it makes sense There's too many ways to say goodbye But it's quite the opposite this time Sometimes I can't help but say I'm falling in love and it's scaring me It came to me in a dream Now all that's left is our empathy But this is just the life I ordered One step back and two steps forward Sometimes I can't help but say We're making history Our history You pulled me in like a tidal wave And let ourselves just float away With no direction, or a way to rewind Yeah, you pulled me in like a tidal wave Thought that it was my mistake And we'd fall apart before I say goodbye But it's quite the opposite this time Sometimes I can't help but say I'm falling in love and it's scaring me It came to me in a dream Now all that's left is our empathy But this is just the life I ordered One step back and two steps forward Sometimes I can't help but say We're making history Our history

[@SarahAlKaissi]

THOSE HARMONIES I CANT

[@kevintagarino5830]

They deserve more fame than this!!... They are like gems that people refuse to see even if they are in front of there eyes... #StateChampsForLife

[@aldyislost]

Been listening to these guys for a year now. One year ago they've amazed me with The Finer Things. Now, they've amazed me even more than this comment can express with just four songs out of their upcoming album. Rock on State Champs, rock on \m/

[@maryamselina1591]

This is the first time I heard State Champs. And it's incredibly amazing 😢

[@rainsworth-]

Easily best pop punk band as of now! This album could surpass the finer things! Well done SC. 😆

[@nafizelgun4003]

This song is making my last finals week at college so much better. I love these guys!!!!

[@JeverestJam]
