G As a point of conversation, he was referencing relation
D G From the corner he came from, the company he'd keep
G She was from the country far from the city
D G They shared one love, they were destined for defeat [PD-C HORUS 1]
D He was tortured, he was troubled
G She was sick and she was lost
C D Searching for an answer, rebels with a cause
G Doing what they do to get what they need
D G Life was cheap, there were no guarantees [INTERLUDE 1]
D | | [CHORUS]
C G Dead end kids you don't want 'em you don't need 'em
D G And you'll always find a reason when you need to write 'em off
C G Dead end kids you can take 'em, you can leave 'em
D G You said they'd never listen you said they'd be better off
