Crying in your car while I'm choking on a cigarette

I don't wanna talk, just wanna keep my loud voice down

Heard they found him down by the place we used to go to play
    Abm                                B
Our youth there on the ground where he finally made the great escape

If you're feeling sorry some four years and later, save it
B           Ebm      Gb         Abm
I gave you all of my innocence, a bowl full of cherries

Shame about your mom and the voice that lives inside her head

You say you're better off, but you're yelling and you're drunk again

I remember five years old I was just hiding out under my bed
                B                 Ebm
It is better to be small than anything
                   Gb                          Abm
You always told me I'd be the first to get knocked up
                     B
And I was, how 'bout that for luck?
