The Kids Aren't Alright

        Bbm
 1.  When we were young the future 
was so bright.
       F#5
       The old neighborhood was so 
alive,
      Bbm
       And ev'ry kid on the whole 
damn street
      G#5
       Was gonna make it big in 
ev'ry beat.
      Bbm
       Now the neighborhood cracked 
and torn.
       F#5
       The kids are grown up but 
their lives are worn.
       G#5
       How can one little street 
swallow so many lives?

          2. Jenny had a chance, 
well she really did
              Instead she dropped 
out and had a couple of kids
              Mark still lives at 
home cause he's got no job
              He just plays guitar 
and smokes a lot of pot
              Jay committed suicide
               Brandon OD'd and died
               What the hell is 
going on?
              The cruellest dream - 
reality
