Verse 1:
A E
Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me, never listened to a word I said
A E
Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me, never listened to a word I said
A E
Always yap yap yappin' and complainin' at me, made me think I'd be better off dead

I don't wanna talk about it, I don't wanna hear no lip

Take your share don't shout about it, that's your lot, remember you're a kid
Verse 2:

They would always teach me that to swear was a sin, always speak your mind but not aloud

Verse 3:
A E
Taught me to defend myself and to be a man, how to kick someone and run away
A E
Gave me everythin' that any young man could need but don't understand why I won't stay
D A E A D A E A
Here's your room and here's your records, here's your home and here you'll stay
D A E A G D E
Here's somewhere I don't believe in, wish someone would take it all away
Chorus:
