Strum
D-DU-UDU
(/E)
I was born, upside down
I felt my grandma put my feet
(/E)
on the ground
They put a spoon, in my mouth
And everyone was shocked to
(/E)
hearme shout
Well I knew I couldn't take all
the dog food that they make
I'd just as soon as put myself
on a stake and burn
I saw it comin' around
I saw it comin' around, yeah
I saw it comin' around
So I just, yeah
Shook my head and walked
away.
(Do 1st stanza chords)
I grew up, in a town
Where everybody tried to push
me around
The girls were alright, but
the guys were tough
They're always buggin' me with
macho stuff
Well, I ain't no stupid
fighter, I go for flower
power
I've been running every race
just to save my face, yeh
(Repeat Refrain)
Well, they try to see if you
care
It's just a matter of not
begging for more
You know it's really suicidal
to just give in
E E--
With people you can never
really be sure--
O-hoh when it gets down to this
(Do 1st stanza chords)
They'll eat you up
When the words get in your head
They'll get you up
It's a saving grace to have
enough
When you find yourself in a
compromising spot
You should know, you shouldn't
take
All that dog food that they
make
You'd just as soon as put
yourself on a stake and burn
You'll see it comin' around,
You'll see it coming, comin'
around,
When you see it coming around,
you just, yeah
Shake yer head and walk away
Yeah! (Walk away) alright!
Shake, shake, shake, shake
yer head;(2x)
Yes, the one you think with..ho
---ohhC'mon, c'mon
