Robin Hood

G    C  D
     Ah-ah
G    C  D
     Ah-ah


[Verse]

G
Riding in the back seat
C                  D
Rolling through the neighborhood
G
Brought up in the back streets
C                     D
Wouldn't change if he could
G
It's better than the factory
C                              D
Or the shopping mall where you work
G
Johnny doesn't actually
       C               D
Have to load the gun to make it work


[Chorus]

C               D
    And all the boys round Johnny
      G       Em           Bm
They wanna be dealers and thugs
C               D                     G
    But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
C            D
    When the teacher asked him,
G              Em         Bm
"Who would you be if you could?"
C            D             G
    "I wanna be like Robin Hood,
     G
Robin Hood"

[Verse]

G
He ran in from the alley
       C                 D
To the Halifax where she worked
G
Gotta love Sally
    C                     D
She didn't flinch when he burst
G
In through the doorway
       C                  D
With a sawn-off under his shirt
    G
She knew in the worst way
     C                  D
That he was the man for her


[Chorus]

C               D
    And all the boys round Johnny
      G       Em           Bm
They wanna be rappers and thugs
C               D                     G
    But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
C            D
    When the teacher asked him,
G              Em         Bm
"Who would you be if you could?"
C            D             G
    "I wanna be like Robin Hood,

[Bridge 1]

                        A
And I'll steal from the rich
                Bm
I'll give to the poor
            C
I'll stop police from
                  Em
Knocking down the door
           A
I steal it all
                Bm
Then I'll steal more
               C
And I'll never end up
                       G
Behind the Jail Guitar Doors

[Verse]


G                 C
      And to this day
      D            G
As an actual fact
                 C
In the best way
              D                       G
They've still got each other's backs
   C
15 Years
  D
2 heart attacks
G
   2 children


G                               C
Sally's mother always asks her,
      D                   G
"What is it about Johnny,
                            C          D
What is it about Johnny that makes you bother?"
          G
She says,
                               C
"There's a few things that are true
                D
In this life of wonder,
G
Everybody hates the law,
    C       D
And everyone loves a bank
G
robber, robber, robber
                C
robber, robber, robber!"


D            G                               C
Loves a bank robber, robber, robber, robber, robber!" [x7]



[Outro]

    And all the boys round Johnny
      G       Em           Bm
They wanna be rappers and thugs
C               D                     G
    But Johnny knows that it ain't no good
C            D
    When the teacher asked him,
G              Em         Bm
