Brothers and [F] sisters, the tale of Helmet Head.
I was just 17 [C] when I made [F] the HL.
[Bb] I couldn't [F] skate in junior but [G] my fists rang [C] like a bell.
[Bb] I'll never [F] win a title and I'll never [Dm] win the cup.
[Am] When it comes to ladies I've had the best of luck.
[F] My first girl was a slime when [C] she was hanging [F] around her wig.
She sent me off with her mom [G] as fast as [C] she could [Bb] make.
She kicked me [F] shots, I'll write her [C] love, her [Dm] daughter I'll sleep [E] close.
[F] Drained of paper, [C] nothing to make [F] up for.
I have [C] wrote so goodbye.
Happy what?
[F] It's [C] all gone by the [Bb] way.
She had [F] the [C] face of a hunk as I played my face.
So goodbye.
[F] And I'm glad you [C] shared my [Bb] bed.
I'll never [F] touch the thumb [C] of the helmet [Dm] on his head.
[F] Shot nothing but my [C] gun on his joy [F] of it.
[Bb] Tongue and [F] shirt was red as [G] fuck, he had [C] men's car.
[Bb] Girl's foot [F] was a [C] bootleg [D] legendary foot peg.

He screamed [F] and probably [G] cursed and followed [C] it in my ears.
[Bb] [F] I should have made [C] him say I had [Dm] a deadly ring.
