[Bridge 3] [A7] Mama gives you [B7] money, [Em7] for Sunday [Gm6] school, [A7] You trade yours for [B7] candy, [Em7] after church is [A7#5] through.
[Verse 4] [Dm7] Smokin' ciga- [G7] rettes and, And [Dm7] writing something [G7] nasty on the [Dm7] wall, [G7] (you nasty [Dm7] boy!) [G7] [Dm7] Teacher sends you [G7] to the [Dm7] principals of [G7] fice down the [Dm7] hall. [G7]
[Bridge 4] [A7] You grow up and [B7] learn that, [Em7] kinda thing ain't [Gm6] right. [A7] But while you were [B7] doin' it; it [Em7] sure felt outta [A7#5] sight.
