G 
C 
G 
C 
I'll be the
G 
first to admit
I'm a little stuck in high school
I rose colored those memories
with drug store sunglasses
C 
I never liked warm beer or cigarettes
G 
But I liked watching the smoke
clear the high school fence

Verse 2
G 
I am a self- described black sheep,
a self- denying sinner Raised by a village of my peers in the back seats of used cars
C 
It took a long time for my

G 
But when they finally did I was

Or is the kid still waiting

G 
God bless the linoleum table
in my daddy's kitchen
If he was scared he'd never tell but I sure as hell did listen And it

G 
I still learned how to curse just like he did
Em
