2ND VERSE:

Am                                           Em
After school is over, you're playing in the park
 G                                  Dm
Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark
      Am                                         Em
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
     G                                     Dm
And grow up just like them, won't let you work it out
            C       E
And you're full of doubt

3RD VERSE:

 Am                          Em
Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight

Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right
Am                                         Em
But while I'm still living, I've just got this to say
      G                              Dm
It's always up to you if you want to be that
         F
Want to see that
         C           E
Want to see it that way
