Tuned down half a step
Dm
Cheerleaders hate me
F
librarians too
Bb
i look at them they look at me
F C
and i realize they're looking through
Dm
shopgirls ignore me
F
and the hookers all boo
Bb
i disappear in front of them as i
F C
walk along the avenue
Dm F
cause i got nobody
F Bb F
i must be cold-blooded
Dm Bb F
and i wonder if they hear my heartbeat blues
Dm
the dirt on my collar
F
the cracks in my skin
Bb
they never say a word to me
F C
like i'm just some kinda mannequin
Dm
out on the schoolyard
F
and down on the street
Bb
i cross my heart and hope to die
F C
there will be someone there for me
Dm F
cause i got nobody
F Bb F
i must be cold-blooded
Dm Bb F
and i wonder if they hear my heartbeat blues
F5 D5 F5
tell me a story
Bb5 C5 Bb5
i got a heart that makes the sound of a rockin' band
F5 D5 F5
where are you going
Bb5 C5 Bb5
a happy ending doesn't happen til the audience stands
F5 D5 F5
tell me a story
Bb5 C5 Bb5
i got a hundred pages written on the back of my hand
F5 D5 F5
where are you going
Bb5 C5 Bb5
i got a heart and you can have it if you let me be your man
