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