Eb
When I was a kid and I had no money
Ab
That stuff didn't bother me because I had potential
There was always a tomorrow
Eb
Always something Better Than Today
Eb
Now I'm not a kid and you know what's funny?
I don't feel so grown-up
Eb
I only feel afraid these days
And now here comes that tomorrow and I only
Eb
Want to run away
[Chorus]
Gm Ab
So don't pick on me
Bb Cm
Don't give me your shit, don't give me your shit
Gm Ab
We've all got problems
Bb Cm
We're living with it, we're living it
Gm Ab
Just keep on going
Bb Cm
And that is the trick, that is the trick
Gm Ab
And I think I think I think I think
Bb Eb Db Eb
I think I think too much
[Verse]
Eb
When I was a kid, well my dad made money
Damn, we hardly saw him
Ab
My brother'd say the same thing too
Oh Daddy, Daddy, Daddy where were you?
Eb
Where were you when we needed you?
Eb
But you play the hand you get and you worry some
You make the best of a situation
Ab
I'd probably do the same as you
I would too, I would too
Ab
You got to hang onto each other
Eb
Hold onto what we got and not let go
No, no, no!
[Chorus]
Gm Ab
Don't pick on me
Bb Cm
Don't give me your shit, don't give me your shit
Gm Ab
We've all got problems
Bb Cm Bb
We're living with it, we're living with it
Gm Ab
Just keep on going
Bb Cm
And that is the trick, that is the trick
Gm Ab
And I think I think I think I think
Bb
I think I I I...
[Middle 8]
Gm Cm
I'm doing my best here
Ab Bb
C'mon and give me a break, give me a break
Gm Cm
It's all I can do now
Ab Bb
It's all I can take, it's all I can take
Gm Cm Ab Bb
I get so downhearted, I do
Gm Cm Ab Bb
I get so downhearted
Gm Ab Bb Gm Ab Bb
Oh I do, I do
[Instrumental]
Eb Ab Bb Cm Bb

[Chorus]

So don't pick on me

Don't give me your shit, don't give me your shit
Gm Ab
We've all got problems
Bb Cm Bb
We're living with it, we're living it
Gm Ab
Just keep on going
Bb Cm
And that is the trick, that is the trick
Gm Ab
And I think I think I think I think
Bb Cm
Too much, I know I do
Gm Ab
I think I think I think I think
Bb
I think I'm just like you
Gm Ab Bb
I, I, I do
[Outro]

When I was a kid and I had no money

That stuff didn't bother me, oh no
