D     Bm                 F#m 
Understand the things I say 
       G                 D 
Don't turn away from me 
               Bm              F#m 
Cause I spent half my life out there 
       G                D 
You wouldn't disagree 
         
D'you see me, d'you see 
Do you like me, do you like me standing there 
D'you notice, d'you know 
Do you see me, do you see me 
Does anyone care 

Unhappiness, where's when I was young 
And we didn't give a damn 
cause we were raised 
To see life as a fun and take it if we can 
My mother, my mother she hold me 
Did she hold me, when I was out there 
My father, my father, he liked me 
Oh he liked me, does anyone care 

Understand what I've become 
It wasn't my design 
And people everywhere think 
Something better than I am 
But I miss you, I miss 
cause I liked it, I liked it 
When I was out there 
D'you know this, dyou know 
You did not find me, you did not find 
Does anyone care 

Unhappiness was when I was young 
And we didn't give a damn 
cause we were raised 
To see life as fun and take it if we can 
My mother, my mother she hold me 
Did she hold me, when I was out there 
My father, my father, he liked me 
Oh he liked me, does anyone care
