[Verse 1]
             G
Thought when I grew up
        Am                 Em
I would be the same as the ones
                    D
who gave me my last name
        G                    Am
I would not give in, I would not
partake
       Em
In the same old drugs
              D
everyone else takes

[Pre-Chorus]
    C                     Em
I'm better than that, I'm better
than that
    D
I'm living my life so I go to
                            G
heaven and never come back
    C
But look where I'm at,
               Em
look where I'm at
    D
I'm living the life that I said
              N.C.
I wouldn't, I wanna go back

[Chorus]
Em                  C               G
  I used to call my mom every Sunday
                            D
So she knew her love wasn't far away
Em                       C
  But now I'm all fucked up
            G
  out in LA
                        D
'Cause I care more about what
other people say
Em                   C
  I used to not take chances
                   G
  with God's name
                 D
But it's been so long since
I last prayed
Em                       C
  And now I'm all fucked up and
                      G
  my heart's changed
                        D
'Cause I care more about what
other people say
G     Am    Em    G     Am
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Em    G     B     Em
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
C
  'Cause I care more about what

[Verse 2]
       G                   Am
I wish I could shelter the boy I knew
         Em
From the constant hell
            D
I'd put him through
           G                    Am
'Cause I'm all grown up and I'm black
and blue
        Em
I could use some tape,
                 D
I could use some glue
