I was a rebel from the day I left school.
Grew my hair long and broke all the rules.
[C] I'd sit and listen to my records all [D] day.
With big ambitions of when I could play.
[G] My parents taught me what life was about.
So I grew up the type they'd warn me about.
[C] They said my friends were just an unruly mob and I should
[G] get a [Eb] haircut and get a real job.
Get a haircut and get a real job.
Clean your act up and don't be a sly.

[D] Get a haircut and get a real [G] job.
I even tried at 9 to 5 C.
I told myself that it was all a bad dream.
[C] I'm out of bed and some good songs to play.
[D] Now I party all night, I sleep all day.
[G] I met this chick, she was my number one fan.
