Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
A (and then the bass slides down from A to Ab to E and then F#)
You don't know
You don't know how hard it's been
I tried so hard to be good but I just can't win
So I got no mother now
No one to slap me on the wrists
With no one to be good for
I just can't resist
(Bass Slide from the intro again)
Well anyways
Who's to say whats right and wrong?
I've sinned to the preacher, livid to the teacher
So whose side are you on?
Please don't pray for me
You'll waste your breath
They don't take Jerks like me in heaven.
(Bass Slide)
Play some chords in the key of A here
End on:
(Bass Slide)
You don't know
You don't know how far I've gone
There's been some shit I've done that'd scare almost anyone
Sure, I made some enemies
Some don't even know who they are just yet
I'm sure on that fateful day they won't forget
So whats this all about?
Some half-assed cry for help
It's just another ditty
"Oh what a pity, the boy can't help himself"
So please don't cry for me
You'll waste your tears
You'd think I'd of learned something the past thirty years.
