(1st verse)
Bm            Bm*                D                     F#
I realize they meant no harm and that they'd seen the truth
 
Bm                    Bm*                D              F#
These men and women young and old who tried to mold my youth
 
D               F#          Bm                    Bm*
They were only teaching me how to get through life
 
D                  F#             Bm                Bm*
How to punch the clock and get a home and get a wife
 
D                F#             Bm                  Bm*
They knew I was searching for things I'd never find
 
          G                          A
So they tried to break my mind by paddling my behind
 
 
(chorus)
         D              F#       Bm   Bm*
All for the love of an innocent mind
 
                G                 A
They were the blind leading the blind
 
             D        F#           Bm   Bm*
All for the love of molding young minds
 
           G
They were to kind
 
                 F#
Headmasters of mine
 
 
(bridge 1)
E                      G             D          D(E on top)
They themselves were products of a past society
 
E                       G               A
They themselves were victims of the same atrocities
 
 
(2nd verse)
Bm              Bm*          D              F#
I realize I must forgive but I will never forget
 
Bm                     Bm*              D              F#
These men and women young and old I'm forever in your debt
 
D                 F#         Bm               Bm*
They were only teaching me how to run the race
 
D            F#             Bm            Bm*
Fill my position with a smile upon my face
 
D                 F#          Bm               Bm*
Don't ask the question if it isn't from the text
 
           G                            A
Throw me out into the hall and ask who wants to be next
 
 
(chorus)
 
 
(bridge 2)
E  E  F#  F#
E  E
 
F#                     E
I feel it's really sick how so much is wasted
 
F#                              E
There's so much food for thought that never is tasted
 
F#                              E
Just read the instructions and fill out the form
 
F#                                 G*                A
And whatever you do my son don't stray from the norm
 
 
(chorus)
 
 
(ending)
E   F#  :repeat
