Verse: 
 G                 Am 
Once when I was a child, 
             Em 
I was going wild, 
                 F      C 
'Cause my momma was so sad. 
G                           Am 
 She taught me what's worthwhile. 
                   Em 
Killed herself in style. 
                    F     C     D 
Peace don't come so ea-si-ly to me 


Verse: 
 G                       Am 
One thing you've got to learn 
                     Em 
You'll never be the same  
              F        C 
As the child you once were. 
G                      Am 
 Life brings a lot of pain,  
                     Em 
It bends you out of shape 
                    F         C   D 
Teaching you the things that are hard 

Lessons learned.

  G         Bm       Am 
Faced with love, we take. 
     F          G 
I'm giving it away. 
   Bm      Am 
Beware of fate. 
      F              G 
And rules you must obey. 
Bm              Am 
I'm not in the game 
      F         D 
I'm playing anyway, 

Losing every day.

Verse: 
     G 
Hey kid, 
                Am 
Get out of the road 
                  Em 
Before I run you down. 
                      F        C 
Where'd you learn to lie like that? 
G                          Am 
 Go on skipping down the stairs 
                    Em 
And keeping to the code,  
              F        C  D 
Taking every bullshit lo-oad.
