This song is best played acoustic, and reasonably fast. Chords
required are below, and are constant throughout the verses if the
song. Afraid I don't know some of the names properly so have just
put the root, I just play 'em. If anyone wants to provide names
please feel free.
Capo: 3rd fret (although on recording it's at the 2nd, see where you
feel most comfortable).
Intro is G C* G G
(when playing the G's try periodically lifting your fingers off the E
and A strings to play 000033, for a kind of rhythmic effect).
Verse 1:
SOL RE SOLSure it's a gas
SOL DO REYou're stuck in an English class
Can't even dream
SOL RE DOSo it's hard to accept the role you're given
SOL RE DOWhen you're sitting there staring at the ceiling
Wishing you were so very far from her------e
SOL DO SOL SOLWhen you're 13
Verse 2:
What fors and whys
If he's got it why can't I
You're my queen
And I dream about you when I'm in my bed
And if all of these things are like you said
Then I'd rather be in another scene
When I'm 14
Verse 3:
It's just not fair
I'm not getting anywhere
Hard as a stone
They expect us to make it all alone
Then they scream at us when we're on the phone
Then they lecture us all about routine
When you're 15
Verse 4:
Get out of here
You're crowding my tender years
Don't say you see
Cos you've forgotten what's it's like to be
And I'm sure that its changed to some degree
And Christ the vice ain't ever as it seems
When you're 16
Refrain (strum intro chords until you feel it's right to continue)
Verse 5:
4 years go
Before and before you know
You're now of age
And you're thrown into a different cage
And you're faced with another blank page
And I know I don't need to be told
Ooooh (* 4)
End with intro chords, played to a crescendo, then slowed down.
Finish on G.
