Tuff Kid

        Dm
I was a tuff kid
              Am
Yeah, I was a tuff kid
          C                   G
It took a lot to get me on my knees
        Dm
I had a hard time
              Am
Yeah, I had a hard time
             C                   G
Just ask somebody if you don't believe me

[Instrumental]
Dm   Am   C   G

[Verse]
            Dm
Now my mama had me
               Am
But she didn't get me
          C                       G
I guess I broke her at the age of five
         Dm
My daddy hit me
                Am
But he couldn't quit me
               C                  G
We showed each other how to feel alive

[Chorus]
     Gm7                  F
Say, hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb                         C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7                          F
Did the kinda thing made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night

[Instrumental]
Dm   Am   C   G

[Verse]
         Dm
It was a small town
              Am
But it didn't fit me
             C                G
There wasn't anything I could do
                 Dm
And so I found a guitar
              Am
And I took it with me
              C                  G
Oh, just like every single kid I knew

[Chorus]
        Gm7                  F
We say, hey everybody at the old schoolyard
Bb                         C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7                               F
Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night

[Bridge]
Dm7
Not last night but the night before
Dm7
Took twenty-four hours getting to my door
Dm7
They don't fall far and they don't fall hard
Dm7
And they're knocking back till the 4th of July

[Instrumental]
Dm   Am   C   G
Dm   Am   C   G

[Chorus]
     Gm7                  F
Say, hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb                         C
Took it all the way and we took it hard
Gm7                          F
Did the kinda thing made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night

[Chorus]
Gm7                  F
Hey everybody at the old school yard
Bb                         C
Take it all the way and we take it hard
Gm7                               F
Did the kinda thing that made you feel alright
Bb
Said the kinda thing keep you up at night
