Verse 1 ------- A Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me E Never listened to a word I said A Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me E Never listened to a word I said A Always yap yap yappin' and complainin' at me E Made me think I'd be better off dead D A E A I don't wanna talk about it D A E A I don't wanna hear no lip D A E A Take your share don't shout about it G D E That's your lot remember you're a kid Verse 2 ------- A They would always teach me that to swear was a sin E Always speak your mind but not aloud A Think of something that you wanna do with your life E Nothin' that you like that's not allowed D A E A I've no time to talk about it D A E A All your stupid hopes and dreams D A E A Get your feet back on the ground son G D E It's exams that count not football teams Chorus ------ D E A And I'm runnin' at the edge of their world D E A They're criticisin' somethin' they just can't understand D E A Livin' on the edge of their town D E A And I won't be shot down Verse 3 ------- A Taught me to defend myself and to be a man E How to kick someone and run away A Gave me everythin' that any young man could need E But don't understand why I won't stay D A E A Here's your room and here's your records D A E A Here's your home and here you'll stay D A E A Here's somewhere I don't believe in G D E Wish someone would take it all away {Repeat chorus}
