capo on 8 !
i'm pretty sure that the capo is on 8.. adjust it to your liking. :)
i came up with these chords myself, so they might be a little off.
D
There's a picture on my kitchen wall
F#m
Looks like Jesus and his friends involved
D7 G
There's a party getting started in the yard
Gm D F#m
There's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive
Em A
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?
D
By the pool last night, apparently
F#m
The chemicals weren't mixed properly
D7 G
You hit your head and then forgot your name
Gm D F#m
And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
Em A
And now your altitude and memory's a shame
D F#m
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
D7
With a little bit more of innocence
Em A D
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
F#m D7 G
It's okay to be easily ignored
Em A7 D
I like to believe it was all about love for a child
F#m
And when the house was left in shambles
D7 G
Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass
Gm D F#m
Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around
Em A
Well I'm far too old to care about that now
D F#m
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
D7
With a little bit more of innocence
Em A D
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
F#m D7 G
It's okay to be easily ignored
Em A7
I'd like to believe it was all about love for a child
G D F#m
It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
G D
I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
G D F#m
And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
Em
And they never check to see my grades
A7
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now
D F#m
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
D7
With a little bit more of innocence
Em A D
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
F#m D7 G
It's okay to be easily ignored
Em A7 D
I'd love to believe it's all about love for a child
A7
It was all about love...
