[Intro]
Ab Db
Ab Db
Well,how come you only want tomorrow
Ab Db
With its promise of something hard to do
Ab Eb
A real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold
Gb Db Ab
Blue skies above and sun on your arms strength in your stride
Eb
And hope in those squeaky clean eyes
Gb
You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go
Db Ab Eb
Blinded with desire - guess the season is on
Ab Db
So you train by the shadow boxing, search for the truth
But it's all, but it's all used up
Ab
Break open your million dollar weapon
Db
And push your luck, still you push, still you push your luck
Ab
A broken nosed mogul are you
Eb
One of the new wave boys
Gb
Same old thing in brand new drag
Db Ab Eb
Comes sweeping into view, oh-ooh
Gb
As ugly as a teenage millionaire
Db Ab
Pretending it's a whizz kid world
Eb
You'll take me aside, and say
Gb
"well David, what shall I do?"
Db
They wait for me in the hallway"
Ab Db
I'll say "dont ask me, I don't know any hallways"
Ab Eb
But they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner
Ab
I feel like a group of one,no-no
Db
They can't do this to me
Ab Db Ab
I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife
Fm Eb
Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes
Fm Eb
The word is that the hunted one is out there on his own
Gb
You're alone for maybe the last time
And you breath for a long time
Db
Then you howl like a wolf in a trap
And you daren't look behind
Fm Eb
You fall to the ground like a leaf from the tree
Ab Db
And look up one time at the vast blue sky
Fm
Scream out aloud as they shoot you down
Gb Db Ab Db
No no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
Ab Db Ab Eb Gb Db Ab Eb
I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
Db Ab Db Ab
And no one will have seen and no on will confess
Db Ab Db
The fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the test Ab
Db Ab Db
There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper low Ab
Db
I miss you he really had to go
Well each to his own, he was
Ab Db
Another piece of teenage wildlife, 0h-0h-0h-ohh
Ab Db
Another piece of teenage wildlife, 0h-oh-oh-ohh
Ab
Another piece of teenage wild...
Db
Wild
Ab
Wild
