verse 1 

  E          G              A          E 
Mother the doctor knows something is wrong 
          G          A         E 
Cause my body has strange information 
       E          G              A         E 
He's looked in my eyes and knows I'm not a child 
         G           A               E 
But he doesn't dare ask the right question 


verse 2 

   E         G             A          E 
Mother my friends are no longer my friends 
          G              A             E 
And the games we once played have no meaning 
            E          G            A            E 
I've gone serious and shy and they can't figure why 
            G         A           E 
So they've left me to my own daydreaming 

       G       A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G        A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G      
Too young to know 
      A 
Too much, too soon 
      E 
Bad wisdom, 
      E 
Bad wisdom. 


verse 3 

  E             G            A           E 
Mother you've taught me the laws are so fine- 
        G           A         E 
If I'm good that I will be protected, 
       E                  G               A          E 
I've fallen through the crack and there's no getting back 
           G           A            E 
And I'll never trust whoever gets elected 


verse 4 

  E          G              A         E 
Mother your eyes have gone suddenly cold 
         G         A         E 
And it wasn't what I was expecting 
 E           G             A            E 
Once I did think that I'd find comfort there 
      G                  A            E 
And instead you've gone hard and suspecting 

       G       A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G        A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G      
Too young to know 
      A 
Too much, too soon 
      E 
Bad wisdom, 
      E 
Bad wisdom.

  E         G          A           E 
Mother I'm cut at the root like a weed 
  E           D          A              A 
Cause there's no one to hear my small story 
  E           G         A            E 
Just like a woman who walks in the street, 
        D 
I will pay for my life with my body 


       G       A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G        A 
What price to pay 
     E 
For bad wisdom 
      G      
Too young to know 
      A 
Too much too soon 
      E 
Bad wisdom, 
      E 
Bad wisdom
