People Gsay I look Cadd9like my grandGfather
And I beEm7gin to explain we Dain't even Gkin
And Ghe'll interCadd9rupt with "Why Gbother?"
And Em7saunter away with a Dsideways grGin
Cause we Cadd9both understand not giving a damn about Gfeelings
And Cadd9why in the hell try and tell folks what you're Glivin'Dsus  D  Dsus2  
[Chorus]
And Cadd9life is defined by deGcisions
And Em7you may burn bridges you ain't Dgot time to Gmend
You're too Cadd9old to be in this conGdition
You're too Cadd9young for the Dlord to take Gin

He'd rGead me the Cadd9bible til Gmidnight
And Em7he tan my hide when he Dcaught me Gin lies
When I Gdropped out of Cadd9school we Gdid fight
And Em7we lost some years and Dour foolish prGide
And Cadd9now I'm not sure if I'm better or worse for the Gdistance
But Cadd9we're not concerned cause there's nothing to learn from GresentmentDsus  D  Dsus2
