Dm
I was a tuff kid
Am
Yeah, I was a tuff kid
C G
It took a lot to get me on my knees
Dm
I had a hard time
Am
Yeah, I had a hard time
C G
Just ask somebody if you don't believe me
[Instrumental]
Dm Am C G
[Verse]
Dm
Now my mama had me
Am
But she didn't get me
C G
I guess I broke her at the age of five
Dm
My daddy hit me
Am
But he couldn't quit me
C G
We showed each other how to feel alive
[Chorus]
Gm7 F
Say, hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7 F
Did the kinda thing made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
[Instrumental]
Dm Am C G
[Verse]
Dm
It was a small town
Am
But it didn't fit me
C G
There wasn't anything I could do
Dm
And so I found a guitar
Am
And I took it with me
C G
Oh, just like every single kid I knew
[Chorus]
Gm7 F
We say, hey everybody at the old schoolyard
Bb C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7 F
Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
[Bridge]
Dm7
Not last night but the night before
Dm7
Took twenty-four hours getting to my door
Dm7
They don't fall far and they don't fall hard
Dm7
And they're knocking back till the 4th of July
[Instrumental]
Dm Am C G
Dm Am C G
[Chorus]
Gm7 F
Say, hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7 F
Did the kinda thing made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
[Chorus]
Gm7 F
Hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb C
Take it all the way and we take it hard
Gm7 F
Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
