The Bully

	  		    Verse 1 

A5 
Ya, they call me the bully 
D5 
Cause I knock you around 
E5                D5 
So what if I make you  
A5                                   G   D 
Eat dirt from the ground 


Verse 2 

A5 
I like the feel of my knuckles  
D5 
On your young tender face 
E5                   D5 
But it hurts me too much 
A5                                                 G    D 
When I hit your teeth by mistake 


Verse 3 

A5 
 Three o’clock in the school yard 
D5 
And don’t you dare be late 
E5                           D5 
Or I’ll find out where you live 
A5                                           G D 
And show up at your place 


 - Half time 

A5 
My heartache is bigger 
D5 
Than a four bar song 
E5                 D5 
Whose rhythm is heavier 
A5                                    G   D 
Than a ten ton gong 
A5 
My heartache is deeper 
D5 
Than the bottom of the sea 
E5                D5 
My heartache is wider 
A5                                             G  D 
Than the silence around me 
A5 
There’s more going on  
D5 
In this big ugly head 
E5                         D5 
But if you ever try to find out 
A5                                        G   D 
You’re as good as dead 



Verse 4 

A5 
That’s why they call me the Bully 
D5 
It’s just the way I got to be 
E5                               D5 
Now that it’s all been said and done 
A5                                         G   D 
It’s time to dance with me 



Verse 5 

A5 
Because I’m the schoolyard Bully 
D5 
I’m gonna punch in your head 
E5                         D5 
You can lay there and take it 
A5                                                       G   D 
Or you can curl up and play dead  



Chorus  

A5 
My heartache is bigger 
D5 
Than a four bar song 
E5                   D5 
Whose rhythm is heavier 
A5                               G   D 
Than a ten ton gong 
A5 
My heartache is deeper 
D5 
Than the bottom of the sea 
E5                  D5 
My heartache is wider 
A5                                           G   D 
Than the silence around me 
A5 
There’s more going on  
D5 
In this big ugly head 
E5                        D5 
But if you ever try to find out 
A5                                   G   D 
You’re as good as dead
