D           G      A    D
I've had these jeans since I was born
         G         A      Bm D
And now they're ripped and now they're torn
        G         A  Em   G
And all my friends have skateboards

I want the toys of other boys
I want a knife and a gun and things
But mom and dad will not give in

    Bm           A
And I can't put the needle in
 G         D/F#
Can't put the needle in
   Em              G
I can't put the needle in
   Bm           A
No I can't put the needle in
 G         D/F#
Can't put the needle in
 Em              G
Can't put the needle in

And now I know just what it is
It's called disease and it's got my head
It always runs where I hide

Too scared too talk, too scared to try
Too scared to know the reasons why
And all my friends say bye bye
