[Em] [C].
I'll only go to school if you give me a [G] reason to fix what I really mean.
And I already know [Bm] all the things they're teaching.
[C] Hop in the car, mama let him play hooky.
Missed the first hour just to get a [G] cup of coffee.
She's the only one who saw who he was.
[B] No one else could read him.
[Em] He's growing up great, but he makes [C] it look class.
Stare out the window and the clock [G] in the back, and he daydreams away to a sky so [Bm] black.
Everything looks so much better, but he's still a kid.
The only thing simple is driving in the [Em] middle.
Wishing every day that something would change.
[C] Said his dad makes him play ball by the bay.
[G] And every time he cried, father rose his eyes, [B] saying, son, it's all your fault.
How come you never [Am] tried?.
He does all that he [B] should.
Why is he misunderstood?.
[Em] This is Floyd, got a broken boy [C] with his head bumped in just to block out the noise.
Bobby went around [G] him telling him the way [B] to go.
So he walks through the world alone, [Em] wondering if it gets [C] better.
It seems all he's gonna find out is that he's driving.
I feel empty forever.
[G] But we get close, try to find another way.
[B] I've been watching the world [Em] alone .
Fifteen years and he's drowning [C] his sorrows.
Smoking weed, drinking cheap liquor out the bottle.
[G] Made a bunch of fake friends cause he tried to fit in.
[Bm] But it wasn't working.
[Em] Ran away with the law about a dozen [C] times.
Nothing to buy, just a few [Gm] suburban crimes.
Till he says to himself.
What are you [Bm] doing?.
You don't [Em] deserve this.
Don't you know nobody will ever understand.
[C] The person that you are, learn to hold your own [G] hand.
Just get your shit together and lose your way.
You'll [B] never be what you want, no not without [Em] fate.
He's got it right and all of his thoughts on [C] paper.
Real life music made life so much greater.
[G] A hundred pounds down, he looks so different now.
[Bm] How'd he plan his escape from a crooked hometown?.
[Am] He does all that he [Bm] should, why is he misunderstood?.
[Em] .
Just a sorry about a broken boy.
[C] With his headphones in just to fuck out the [G] noise.
With everyone around him telling him to wait.
So [B] he walks the world [Em] alone.
Wondering if it gets [C] better.
If he's always gonna feel empty forever.
[G] So he gets lost, trying to find another way [B] [G] home.
As he walks the world [Em] alone.
[C] Alone, [G] alone.
[B] [G] .
[Em] 21 years and he's on the right [C] path.
But sometimes he wonders if he grew up too [G] fast.
And missed out on the little things.
[D] All of the little things Yeah [Em] right.
Who is he kidding?.
Surely not himself.
[C] Sometimes he wonders if there's somebody [G] else.
Who takes the same road, but he'll [D] never know.
Cause he walks the world [Em] alone.
Just a sorry about a broken boy.
[C] With his headphones in just to fuck out the noise.
