Verse :

D MajorD       A/C#A/C#       B minorBm
Take back the toys that you've given me
           A augmentedA      G+G
I never knew what to do with them anyway
    G+G      F#F#      B minorBm
I never knew how to break out the box
      G+G      F#F#     B minorBm
I sink the pebbles and boulders and blocks


Chorus 2:

D MajorD        A/C#A/C#     B minorBm
So take back the toys that you threw my way
           A augmentedA      G+G
I never knew what to do with them anyway
    G+G      F#F#      B minorBm
I never knew how to break out the box
      G+G      F#F#      B minorBm
I guess the tables were served on the rocks

Verse :

D MajorD     A/C#A/C#    B minorBm
I've been down on the beaten track
         A augmentedA      G+G
Just holding on, holding up, holding back
   G+G      F#F#     B minorBm
Given not what I've got but of what I lack
    G+G           F#F#     B minorBm
I guess that's what we've been taught all along
         D MajorD       A/C#A/C#     B minorBm
It's the time for poison in the locks that I got for free
             A augmentedA        G+G
And I've been pumping the pills placed in front of me
     G+G     F#F#    B minorBm
But I've had enough baby I'm breaking free
    G+G        F#F#     B minorBm
I never knew why it would take me so long
A augmentedA              G+G
Take back the toys they are destroying me
      F#F#
Hear what I say? I say

I sink the pebbles and boulders and blocks

Verse 2:

       D MajorD    A/C#A/C#   B minorBm
You see they give you toys just to distract
               A augmentedA      G+G
And then they break your mind so they can break your back
    G+G     F#F#       B minorBm
Got you in so much that you can't pay it back
        G+G        F#F#        B minorBm
And that's the way that it has been for far too long
A augmentedA              G+G
Take back the toys they are destroying me
      F#F#
Hear what I say? I say

I never knew how to break out the box

I sink the pebbles and boulders and blocks

I guess the tables served on the rocks
