[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D When I was in grade six G Used to hold open the door for a girl D And she called me a wimp A D She said there just isn't a need to be so fucking polite A D I politely agreed with her, I think she was right Em D It just never entered my mind Em D A D That at twelve, it all came down to choosing sides
[Verse 2]
D You said that I'd die if I had nothing to do G D Put a drink in my hand, and I'll talk to anything that moves D I just refuse to give you what you think will make things right D Justifying hate when you've lost the will to fight E D Would it be really in touch with the times E D To put somebody down for choosing sides?
[Chorus]
G And she said show us them teeth A Give us them braces G Show us that dental work A E G That puts fear in twelve year old faces D I could make you feel Gmaj7 Even half worthwhile D Just please don't ask me to smile
[Verse 3]
D And at times, when it still feels right G D I hold open the door for a girl, and I'll back down from a fight D And if there just is no need to be so polite D At least it helps you sleep easier at night E D It just never enters my mind E D That it ever should come down to choosing sides
[Chorus]
G And she said show us them teeth A Give us them braces G Show us that dental work A E G That puts fear in twelve year old faces D I could prove to you G That I do or don't get high Em D Just please don't ask me to smile
