Chords

[Intro] Bm A D G [Verse 1]
Bm         A               D               G
If I could talk to all the children in the clouds

Bm           A                 D             G
The ones who couldn't help but take it lying down

Bm       A                      D              G
I'd say, despite your fate, you made your papa proud

Bm                A                 D                  G
There's just some things a guy like that can't say out loud

G          F#  G    A   Bm               G
Oh, your mama, well she just didn't know how

G          F#       G  A  Bm               G
A thousand years of being told to shut her mouth

         D
And kept down, down

D
Down, down

     D
Kept down, down

D
Down, down
[Verse 2]
Bm         A              D              G
If I could steal away the outcast of the class

Bm            A                D               G
I'd break him out of there and take him to the tracks

Bm           A            D            G
We'd bet all of it on the horse with a broke back

Bm            A                 D                 G
We'd watch it win while all the stallions came in last

G   F#       G   A    Bm                  G
Oh, boy, you see your odds ain't all that bad

G       F#        G   A  Bm                 G
Slim to none, but not so slim you've got to slip

  D
Between the cracks

        D
So come back, come back
[Bridge]
F#m       D
   Pretty girl

Bm        G
   Wicked one

F#             D
   Caught your curse

B               Em  F  F#
   Cut out your to--o--ongue
[Instrumental] F#
Bm        A      D         G
     Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

Bm        A      D         G
     Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

Bm        A      D         G
     Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

Bm        A      D         G
     Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
[Outro]
G      F#     G   A   Bm                G
One by one we let 'em burn off with the sun

G        F#           G   A     Bm          G       D
Can only hope they're somewhere finally having some fun

D
Being young
