I tried to break away from you, from the spits and blacks and the gum you chew.
And the posters are torn [D] by the muck and [A] gangs, by the spiky parts and the burnt out fans.

[E] I've got 99 [A] ways of playing my [E] guitar, I stole the pain even [A] before I died.
[E] So bob your sweet [A] head, brothers, you ain't gonna [E] play, I'm just a [A] bopper that you can hear.
[E] Put a rockin' in [A] your head, sometime I'll come [E] round with my guitar and make [A] some grangin', we can give you [E] sweet head.
