[Verse]
        Dm
I was a tuff kid

              Am
Yeah, I was a tuff kid

          C                   G
It took a lot to get me on my knees

        Dm
I had a hard time

              Am
Yeah, I had a hard time

             C                   G
Just ask somebody if you don't believe me
[Instrumental] Dm Am C G [Verse]
            Dm
Now my mama had me

               Am
But she didn't get me

          C                       G
I guess I broke her at the age of five

         Dm
My daddy hit me

                Am
But he couldn't quit me

               C                  G
We showed each other how to feel alive
[Chorus]
     Gm7                  F
Say, hey everybody at the old school yard

Bb                         C
Took it all the way and we took it hard

Gm7                          F
Did the kinda thing made you feel alright

Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
[Instrumental] Dm Am C G [Verse]
         Dm
It was a small town

              Am
But it didn't fit me

             C                G
There wasn't anything I could do

                 Dm
And so I found a guitar

              Am
And I took it with me

              C                  G
Oh, just like every single kid I knew
[Chorus]
        Gm7                  F
We say, hey everybody at the old schoolyard

Bb                         C
Took it all the way and we took it hard

Gm7                               F
Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright

Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
[Bridge]
Dm7
Not last night but the night before

Dm7
Took twenty-four hours getting to my door

Dm7
They don't fall far and they don't fall hard

Dm7
And they're knocking back till the 4th of July
[Instrumental] Dm Am C G Dm Am C G [Chorus]
     Gm7                  F

Took it all the way and we took it hard

Said the kinda thing keep you up at night

Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright

Bb
