[Intro]
E5
 
[Verse 1]
                  E5
Show me, show me, show me a starry-eyed kid
      E5
I, I, I will break his jaw
                          E5
I won't, I won't, I won't let him get his hopes up
C5    B5  C5 B5  C5 B5
No-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
 
E5
And I will save him from himself
         E5
Here's a picture with a note
                         E5
"No, don't turn out like me"
 
It's only for your own good
C5    B5  C5 B5  C5 B5 A5 B5 D5
No-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                E5                                A5 B5 D5
And haven't you heard, the word on the street is
E5                            A5 B5 D5         E5
"I lost it, called it quits," get out into the sun
                A5 B5 D5
Out from behind the gossip
C5 B5  C5 B5  C5 B5 C5 B5 C5
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
 
 
[Chorus]
Em7
This story's getting old
A7sus4
The home wrecker with the heart of gold
Am7
Keep you locked up in the trunk of my mind
B7
Keep, k-keep talking, keep this alive
 
Em7
This story's getting old
A7sus4
The home wrecker with the heart of gold
Am7
Keep you locked up in the trunk of my mind
C5  B5  C5 B5  C5 B5 A5 B5 D5 E5
Now-ow, ow-ow, ow-ow
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
         A5 B5 D5 E5
Hey! Hey!
         A5 B5 D5 E5
Hey! Hey!
         A5 B5 D5 C5
Hey! Hey!

[Verse 2]
                                        E5
Even when there's n-n-n-n-nothing worth living for
                                        E5
You're still, you're still, still worth lying for
              C5 C5   B5  C5 B5  C5 B5 A5 B5 D5
No-no one has to know-ow, ow-ow, ow-ow
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                E5                                A5 B5 D5
And haven't you heard, the word on the street is
E5                            A5 B5 D5         E5
"I lost it, called it quits," get out into the sun
                A5 B5 D5
Out from behind the gossip
C5 B5  C5 B5  C5 B5 C5 B5 C5
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
