[Intro]
G - C - G - C listen to song for rhythm
[Verse 1]
G
I didn't take no shortcuts
I spent the money that I saved up
C
Oh, Momma running out of luck
Like my sister, don't give a fuck
G
I wanna steal your innocence
To me, my life, it don't make sense
C
Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"
G - C - G - C
[Verse 2]
G
I should've worked much harder
I should've just not bothered
C
I never show up on weekdays
Something that you learned yesterday
G
"Drive you to work; you'll be on time
These little problems they're not yours and mine,"
C
"Come on and listen to what I say
I've got some secrets that'll make you stay"
[Bridge]
Dm
I just want to turn you down
I just want to turn you around
Em
Oh, you ain't never had nothin' I wanted, but...
I want it all

Em
"They ordered me to make mistakes"
G/D
Together again, like the beginning
Em
It all works somehow in the end
G/D
The things we did, the things you hide

Oh for the record it's between you and I

I wanna steal your innocence
To me my life, it just don't make any sense

Those strange manners, I loved 'em so
"Why won't you wear your new trench coat?"

I just want to misbehave
I just want to be your slave

Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted, but...
I want it all
