and they could try to sort out with the big man in charge and he talked about some ancient times
                                          F
and how they had been ripped up off their very own town, the one they loved

    Gm
but soon enough they thought about how they were just kids
          F
how their parents would be mad if they didn’t come back
   Gm
it was some sort of holiday, the kind you dress up for and
F                                                             Gm            Bb    F
sit around a table and wish you could throw your fork at your stepdad

             Gm
and she said no one really matters to me and you’re all I care about and
F                                                            Gm

I sold some stuff to a couple of punks and I made enough to pay your debts
  F
I made some cash on the side so we could get the fuck out you said
     Gm
I’ll make you realize that there are people out there
         F                                                                Gm
and they all somehow make it through life though they are uglier than you are

   Gm
so baby let’s not go home so you won’t have to tell your folks
                 F
that you’ve been caught by some stupid cop with a girl from out of town
    Gm
but by the time’s the manager said it wasn’t such a big deal
        F
and the boy looked pretty cute indeed though she seemed a little weird

    Gm

i don't know what country you're from
                     Gm
but i'm sure god has blessed it
                    F                           Gm
’cause it has to be neat if it’s where you were born
D         Gm             F
