Intro: D Bm G A
D
Iām a little boy with glasses, the one they call the geek
Bm
A little girl who never smiles Īcause Iāve got braces on my teeth
G A
And I know how it feels to cry myself to sleep
D
Iām that kid on every playground whoās always chosen last
Bm
A single teenage mother tryinā to overcome my past
G A
You donāt have to be my friend, but is it too much to ask
Chorus:
A D Bm
Donāt laugh at me, donāt call me names
G A
Donāt get your pleasure from my pain
D Bm
In Godās eyes weāre all the same
G A
Someday weāll all have perfect wings
D { Bm G A } ( The 3 chord tag on the 1st and
3rd time only )
Donāt laugh at me
D
Iām a cripple on the corner, youāve passed me on the street
Bm
And I wouldnāt be here begginā if I had enough to eat
G A
And donāt think I donāt notice that our eyes never meet
D
I lost my wife and little boy when someone crossed that yellow line
Bm
The day we laid them in the ground is the day I lost my mind
G A
And right now Iām down to holdinā this little cardboard sign ............
So,
Repeat Chorus:
G A G
A
Iām fat, Iām thin, Iām short, Iām tall, Iām deaf, Iām blind, Hey, arenāt we
all
