INTRO (2x): G  D  C  G  D  C 

         D                             C 
Well, my daddy didn’t pull out, but he never apologized  
G                    D                      C 
Rock and roll means well, but it can’t help tellin’ young boys lies.  
  D                                        C 
A baby on the way’s a good enough reason to get you out alive  
G                   D                 C 
Get you out without having to swallow any pride.  


(2x): G  D  C  G  D  C 

       D                              C 
All my friends are restless, all they do is talk it down, 
G                   D                     C 
two or eight lanes, it don’t matter, it’s just another town. 
        D                                        C 
There’s a fool on every corner, on every street, in every one 
    G                       D                             C  
and I’d rather be your fool nowhere than go somewhere and be no one's
