Millencolin - The Ballad
The last selection in the bGallgame,
Does Emnever gDet a Cpass.
"Not appreciated´s" just his fGirst name.
He´s the sEmcapegoat oDf the cClass
There are no friends to cheer him Gup and
no giEmrls, no Dsweet romCance.
And it´s impossible to eGxpand,
when you Emnever got a Dsecond Cchance.
Do you kGnow, who´s that gEmuy, who´s Dall alCone?
Do you cGare enough to Emsee? He´s in pDain and miserCy
He´s not going to the scGhool-prom.
He sEmaid he hDad the fClue.
Trumped-up excuses as he tGold mom.
-I´m Emsafer hDere with Cyou.
She told her son. -Some day they´ll aGll be
Emsorry for mistrDeating yCou.
Don´t be afraid my son and tGrust me,
-You´ll be Emsomeone they will Dlook up Cto.
Do you kGnow, who´s that gEmuy, who´s Dall alCone?
Do you cGare enough to Emsee? He´s in pDain and miserCy
Do you care to see?

Millencolin - The Ballad

The last selection in the ballgame,

Em D C

Does never get a pass.

"Not appreciated´s" just his first name.

Em D C

He´s the scapegoat of the class

There are no friends to cheer him up and

Em D C

no girls, no sweet romance.

And it´s impossible to expand,

Em D C

when you never got a second chance.

G Em D C

Do you know, who´s that guy, who´s all alone?

G Em D C

Do you care enough to see? He´s in pain and misery

He´s not going to the school-prom.

Em D C

He said he had the flue.

Trumped-up excuses as he told mom.

Em D C

-I´m safer here with you.

She told her son. -Some day they´ll all be

Em D C

sorry for mistreating you.

Don´t be afraid my son and trust me,

Em D C

-You´ll be someone they will look up to.

G Em D C

Do you know, who´s that guy, who´s all alone?

G Em D C

Do you care enough to see? He´s in pain and misery

Do you care to see?
