Just Kids

                B            
'Cause it was Bell Biv DeVoe, 
   C#            F#
playing on my radio
             B           C#       
And I had Wu-Tang Clan living in 
     F#
my stereo
                B             
Mama said we're 6th generation 
  C#    F#
Oregonians
                  B       C#
I was rocking in Jordans with 
                 F#
reflector tongues
             B               C#   
Two kids with wet cement living 
               F#
down in their souls
                     B        
They say what gets caught when 
              C#                   
you're young stays there when 
     F#
you're old
    B                             
So misunderstood they say you're 
C#       F#
up to no good
                          B     
And now we're trying our best to 
   C#           F#
start it over again

[PD-C HORUS]
                             B
If I'd had met you at the playground
C#                F#
Before a hand could tear your world 
down
                           B
Before I slammed down the door and
    C#                   F#
You said I'm just like my old man
                            B
Before I put you in those boxes
         C#             F#
And we learned how to disagree
                            B
And how your family is a rocket
        C#           F#
That blows up in infidelity

[CHORUS]
       B                C#    F#
For crying out loud I wanna know
         B                       
How the waves keep on crashing 
C#        F#
down the doors
         B                      
Feel the weight of the world and 
        C#               F#
they keep on bringing more
              B           C#      
If it's just you and me on the 
  F#
floor

Go grab your coat and I'll drive 
    F#
us home
                    B
Like we were just kids
C#        F#
Just, j-j-just kids
                  B          C#  F#
J-j-just kids, just, just kids

[VERSE]
                    B       
Bob Marley was painted on my 
   C#           F#
high-school walls
                 B        C#  
But I just disappeared into the 
            F#
darkroom hall
          B              C#       
Never thought I'd ever make it 
        F#
quite this far
                    B           C#
Teacher put up my photographs, say
                    F#
 "son you'll be a star"
          B               C#      
It was smoking mirrors, running 
                  F#
down through my veins
            B                   C#
I kept on running downtown, 
                F#
running from God's grace
                      B     
Every morning I'd climb back 
          C#            F#
through, those window panes
            B                    
And try my best to ride it out 
C#               F#
over instrumental tapes

[BRIDGE x4]
B                      C#    F#
I can feel it in the way we try
F#
I can feel it in the way we fight
B              C#          F#
We're standing side by side
F#                  B
Like we were just kids
