_ My mom and daddy broke up when I was four years old.
_ _ _ When I was seven she went and got herself a stepdaddy. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Then the stepdaddy went off to Korea.
I _ _ _ believe he was a cook. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ When he come back from Korea _ _ he was _ bad to the boy.
_ _ He so _ bad he could [G#] beat up on me [F#] and my little brother. _
_ _ [D] _ _ [F#] _ _ One day he come in my bedroom, _ _ _ pushed me out through the window.
_ _ [F#] _
The window was closed. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So I be laying out there in the grass _ _ _ and the broken glass _ _ just thinking to [C#] myself,
you know, [C] _ off of my head, [F#] _
_ _ _ I'm going to kill this little boy. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ When he come back from Korea _ _ he brought home this very pretty _ _ _ pearl handle, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ chrome plated, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ 45 automatic. _ _ _ _ _ _
So the next day _ _ _ I go in the bedroom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ pull out the pretty little _ _ _ chrome plated _ _ _ 45 automatic.
I sat _ on the edge of the [D] bed and I slammed one in the [F#] chamber _ _ and I waited for him to
come home from [N] work so I could put one in his punk [D] ass ear.
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] Well then I had _ to do something, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
but it was [F#] my Jesus.
_ _ _ [N]
He said, Steve, _ you dumb shit, _ you shoot that punk ass pope, you're going to go to jail
for the rest of your [D] life.
So why don't you [G] just pack your shit?
[F#] _
_ _ _ _ So I left home before I was 14 years of age.
_ _ Figured I'd do it better on my own.
_ _ Then followed a number of years of bumming around, _ living hand to mouth. _ _ _ _
Just sometimes getting locked up, _ _ sometimes [C#m] _ I don't know. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I never really had any school education. _
_ _ _ Wasn't a hell of a lot I was going to be able to do.
_ _ _ [N] I always did pick on the guitar, put the hat [G#] out for the spare [F#] change.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Look, I don't know why things went wrong, [C] but it ain't bad now.
So I just keep playing [F#] my dog house blues.
