 You stole my money and my cigarettes 
                                         Asus  A  A7 
 And I haven't seen hide nor hair of you yet 

         C               G        D               A    A7

 Won't you cleanse my soul,  
                    E7            A7sus4 
 Put my feet on the ground 
              E7                    Asus  A  A7  
I don't know why she treated me so bad 
E7                                           Asus  A  A7 
 Look at all those things that we could have had 
E7                                 Asus  A  A7 
 Love is a notion that I can't forget 
E7                                Asus  A  A7 
 My sweet sixteen I will never regret 

         C               G        D               A    A7

 After all the things that you put me through 
E7                                  Asus  A  A7 
 The sixteen candles burning on my wall

 Turning me into the biggest fool of them all
