[G] Six schools in six years, been kicked [Em] out of every place
[G] Everything I ever do [C] is wrong, never [G] find where I belong
Everybody on my [D] case,
[G] the same old [D] story, the same old song
[G] Don't act up, don't act down, be strong
I keep my head down, I keep my chin up, [D] but it [Cm] ends up all the same
[B] With [C] back your back's mercy, [Cm] you're [Eb] always to blame
I never try to [Ab] do [Bb] anything, I [Cm] never mean to hurt [Eb] anyone
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid, a good kid, a good son
[Ab] But no one ever will [Bb] take my side, [Cm] all I ever do is [Eb] take the fall
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid, guess I'm good [D] for nothing at all
[G] Gabe was a world-class jerk, dad was never there
The only family that really mattered, well, she vanished into the air
And now I finally find a haven, [C] someplace [G] safe where I can stay
Till it's [Cm] back your back's mercy, now [Eb] go, go away
I never try to [Abm] do [Bb] anything, I never mean to [Cm] hurt [Eb] anyone
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid, yeah, Percy, [Ab] that's a [Eb] good one
[Ab] But no one ever will [Bb] take my side, all I [Cm] ever do is [Eb] take the fall
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid, guess I'm [G] good for nothing at all
All the [C] schools in six years, [G] every battle [Em] every day
No one ever tells me that they're [C] proud, no one asks me, Percy, [D] how you'd like to come around and stay
[Em] All you get are bad grades and a bum [Cm] rap and a bad rep and a good [Bm] smack plan
[G] No friends and no [Bb] hope and no mom, [Ab] she's taken away
[Bb]
[Cm] [Eb] I swear I never stole anything, [Bb] I never [Cm] meant to hurt [Eb] anyone
I swear, I swear that I'm a good kid, a good kid who's had a bad run
[F] [Eb] And all I need is one last chance to prove I'm good enough for someone
I'm [Bb] [Cm] good enough for [Eb] someone
