Rebel (Bryan Adams)
-------------------
Album: Into the Fire (1987)
Track #7
Well he m[D/F#]ade his way b[G]ack to the ol[D/A]d town,
[D/F#]And everything lo[G]oked just the sam[Asus]e,[A]
The sh[Em]ops and the schools and the f[Bm]actories were there,
But so[Csus2]mehow the faces had ch[Asus]anged.[A]
So he w[D/F#]ent for a wa[G]lk in the hig[D/A]h street,
[D/F#]Took his coat off and [G]rolled up his sleeve[Asus]s,[A]
He th[Em]ought of his father and his f[Bm]ather before him,
And how[Csus2] he was the first one to le[Asus]ave.[A]
Well he d[D/F#]idn't come he[G]re for forgiv[D/A]eness,
There i[D/F#]sn't a lo[G]t they can s[Asus]ay,[A]
Cause I re[Bb]member the reasons he f[C]irst ran away.
CHORUS:
He's a r[D5]ebel,[D5/E][D5/F#][Gsus]
Just a r[D5]ebel,[D5/E][D5/F#][Gsus]
Got his b[D5]ack to the w[D5/E]all,
[D5/F#]Gonna fig[Gsus]ht till he falls,
He's a r[D5]ebel.[D5/E][D5/F#]
Don't ever look back - don't surrender,
The old men say they've seen it before,
Oh they drink their beer and they talk about friends,
Who didn't come back from the war.
Don't say he's too young to remember,
Don't tell him what's wrong or what's right,
Just give him a chance to get out there and fight.
He's a r[D5]ebel,[D5/E][D5/F#][Gsus]
Just a r[D5]ebel,[D5/E][D5/F#][Gsus]
All the b[D5]attles are w[D5/E]on,
[D5/F#]But he's st[Gsus]ill on the run,
He's a r[D5]ebel.[D5/E][D5/F#][Gsus]
BRIDGE:
[Asus] When it comes time for lea[A]vin',
[Asus] Don't stand in my wa[A]y,
[Em] There's nothin' left for me here,[G]
Gonna run - run a[Asus]way.[A][Asus][A][D9][Dsus][D9][Dsus]
In the morning he walks passed the old house,
In the rain under grey northern skies,
There's a new coat of paint on the front garden gate,
But there's more there than first meets the eye.
For a moment he stands undecided,
Looking back on the days of his youth,
As two worlds collide in a moment of truth.
CHORUS
