William plays this songs differently from time to time.
On the record I believe he plays it in
C# G# C# F# G# C# tuning (DADGAD lowered one semi-tone).
On some live versions he plays it in standard tuning.
This tab is a simplified version, very easy to play,
written in DADGAD. If you want to play along with the record
you will need to lower the whole tuning one semi-tone. Have fun!

Verse
Bm* G*
15 months and they would
D* A*
Drag you from your throne
Bm* G* A* A*
But you ain't got no place to go
Bm* G*
You're the bad one from the
D* A*
day you were born
Bm* G* A* A*
You can run I don't think that you can hide
Have you found the knife and
cigarettes inside
of your locker with your books?
Smoking weed with Joe and
Rock inside his house
You can run I don't think that you can hide
G* Bm* A* A*
Mom wants you to come back home
G* Bm* A* G*
She keeps crying when I call her on the phone
G** Bm* A* A*
Won't you give this thing a chance?
Bm* G* A* A*
You were not what you were When you were young
Bm* G* A* A*
You were not what you were When you were young
Verse
I was fucked up when you
needed me the most
Trying to starve myself to death
I still feel like I did
something always wrong
You can run I don't think that you can hide
Chorus
Mom wants you to come back home
She keeps crying when I call her on the phone
Won't you give this things a chance?
Cause you were not what you were When you were young
You were not what you were When you were young
