[C]Little children standing in the h[G]all,[E7]
[Am]Never taught them [G]anything at a[(F#)]ll.
And if [F]you were young again, would you [C]do it different?
Or m[G]ake your way just trying to find the f[E7]iction in the fact of life?

[Am]Try to believe the words that you s[C]aid to me are true,
But s[F]omething else assures me I'm not [Dm]through.[C]
[G]Been denied so many times, and [Am]so I'm told to
[F]Sit back and [Dm]ignore the truth, [G]enjoy the [F]ride, yeah.

[Am]Take a guess and t[G]ell us who's the f[(F#)]ool.
And y[F]ou're not supposed to be my resp[C]onsibility;
[G]One day you'll regain your pride, and [E7]realize life is too short not
