verse 1:
 
A                                                                           E 
Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me, never listened to a word I said 
A                                                                           E 
Back when I was younger they were talkin' at me, never listened to a word I said 
A                                                                             E 
Always yap yap yappin' and complainin' at me, made me think I'd be better off dead 
D       A     E     A        D       A     E       A 
I don't wanna talk about it, I don't wanna hear no lip 
D         A           E      A        G                  D               E 
Take your share don't shout about it, that's your lot, remember you're a kid 

verse 2: 

A                                                                                   E 
They would always teach me that to swear was a sin, always speak your mind but not aloud 
A                                                                                        E 
Think of something that you wanna do with your life, nothin' that you like, that's not allowed 
D       A       E     A        D        A      E         A 
I've no time to talk about it, all your stupid hopes and dreams 
D        A         E      A           G               D             E 
Get your feet back on the ground son, it's exams that count not football teams 


        D              E             A              D           E                   A 
And I'm runnin' at the edge of their world, they're criticisin' somethin' they just can't understand 
D             E             A        D       E       A 
Livin' on the edge of their town and I won't be shot down
 

verse 3: 
A                                                                       E 
Taught me to defend myself and to be a man, how to kick someone and run away 
A                                                                                 E 
Gave me everythin' that any young man could need but don't understand why I won't stay 
D           A        E           A        D           A        E           A 
Here's your room and here's your records, here's your home and here you'll stay 
D           A      E       A         G                  D            E 
Here's somewhere I don't believe in, wish someone would take it all away 


        D              E             A              D           E                   A 
And I'm runnin' at the edge of their world, they're criticisin' somethin' they just can't understand 
D             E             A        D       E       A 
Livin' on the edge of their town and I won't be shot down

Runnin' at the edge of their world, they're criticisin' somethin' they just can't understand

Livin' on the edge of their town and I won't be, no I won't be, no I won't be shot down
