Chords with lyrics

(intro) AbAb C#C#

AbAb            C#C#
Well,how come you only want tomorrow

AbAb                C#C#
With its promise of something hard to do

AbAb                Eb MajorEb
A augmentedA real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold

F#F#                   C#C#          AbAb
Blue skies above and sun on your arms strength in your stride

Eb MajorEb
And hope in those squeaky clean eyes

F#F#
You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go

C#C#          AbAb     Eb MajorEb
Blinded with desire - guess the season is on

AbAb                       C#C#
So you train by the shadow boxing, search for the truth

But it's all, but it's all used up

AbAb
Break open your million dollar weapon

C#C#
And push your luck, still you push, still you push your luck

AbAb
A augmentedA broken nosed mogul are you

Eb MajorEb
One of the new wave boys

F#F#
Same old thing in brand new drag

C#C#         AbAb   Eb MajorEb
Comes sweeping into view, oh-ooh

F#F#
As ugly as a teenage millionaire

C#C#            AbAb
Pretending it's a whizz kid world

Eb MajorEb
You'll take me aside, and say

F#F#
"well David, what shall I do?"

C#C#
They wait for me in the hallway"

AbAb               C#C#
I'll say "dont ask me, I don't know any hallways"

AbAb              Eb MajorEb
But they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner

AbAb
I feel like a group of one,no-no

C#C#
They can't do this to me

AbAb       C#C# AbAb
I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife

F minorFm                        Eb MajorEb
Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes

F minorFm                         Eb MajorEb
The word is that the hunted one is out there on his own

F#F#
You're alone for maybe the last time

And you breath for a long time

C#C#
Then you howl like a wolf in a trap

And you daren't look behind

F minorFm              Eb MajorEb
You fall to the ground like a leaf from the tree

AbAb            C#C#
And look up one time at the vast blue sky

F minorFm
Scream out aloud as they shoot you down

F#F#      C#C#        AbAb   C#C#
No no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife

AbAb  C#C# AbAb Eb MajorEb F#F# C#C# AbAb Eb MajorEb
I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife

C#C#          AbAb  C#C#       AbAb
And no one will have seen and no on will confess

C#C#         AbAb    C#C#
The fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the test G#G#

C#C#          AbAb        C#C#
There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper low G#G#

C#C#
I miss you he really had to go

Well each to his own, he was

AbAb          C#C#
Another piece of teenage wildlife, 0h-0h-0h-ohh
             AbAb          C#C#
Another piece of teenage wildlife, 0h-oh-oh-ohh
             AbAb
Another piece of teenage wild....

C#C#
Wild

AbAb
Wild
