Bm          Em   D              F#7
 I remember when, I saw the sea freeze.

Bm           Em      D                        F#7
 But it said nothing, about the birds and the bees.

          Bm                 Em   D                    F#7
They were swarming around my head; you'd be better off dead.
Bridge 1:
      G                     F#m
But I ain't going down like that.

  G                     F#m
I ain't going down like that.
Chorus 1:
         Bm                    Em
'Cos I'm better than him and I know where I've been,

    D                     F#7
You know where I'm coming from.

        Bm                Em
And I'm hired to sin, but don't we all sin?

D                          F#7
 That is the truth and the truth is grim.

         Bm                Em
It ain't easy in jail; the stories for sale,

     D                           F#7
Your father has died, while he's gripped for bail.

   Bm                        Em
He points to the west and he leaves out the rest,

    D                   F#7
And wants you to be his special guest.

G     F#m  G    F#m
 Ooh...    ooh...

 I remember when, I saw the leaves fall.

Bm            Em
 I was in the woods,

        G                             F#7
And the gown you wouldn't wear to the Ball.

Bm                Em  D                 F#7
 Into the ditch I fly; wanted dead or a-live.
Bridge 2:
      G                     F#m

No, I ain't going down like that.

You know where I'm coming from.

        Bm                Em
And I'm hired to sin, but don't we all sin?

D                          F#7
