Intro: A E
A E
So I took my guitar
F#m C#m
And I threw down some chords
D A E(riff)
And some words I could sing without shame
A E
And I soon had a song
F#m C#m
I played it around
D A E(riff)
For some friends but they all said the same
A E
They said music's for fools
F#m C#m
You should go back to school
D A E(riff)
The future is prisms and math
A E
So I did what they said
F#m C#m
Now my children are fed
D A E(riff)
'Cause they pay me to do what I'm asked
(For this next set get more intense and strum harder as in the song)
A E
I forgot all my songs
F#m C#m
The words now are wrong
D A E(riff)
And I burned my guitar in a rage
(get softer)
A E
But the fire came to rest
F#m C#m
In your white velvet breast
D A A(hold)
So somehow I just know that it's safe.
End...
