There's a picture on my kitchen wall
D#m
Looks like Jesus and his friends involved
G#C#m
There's a party getting started in the yard
C#mEmBD#mG#m
There's a couple getting steamy in the car parked in the drive
C#mF#sus4F#
Was I too young to see this with my eyes?
B
By the pool last night, apparently
D#m
The chemicals weren't mixed properly
G#C#m
You hit your head and then forgot your name
C#mEmBD#mG#m
And then you woke up at the bottom by the drain
C#mF#sus4F#
And now your altitude and memory's a shame
BC#m7D#m7C#m7
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
BC#m7
With a little bit more of some innocence
D#m7C#m7B
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
D#7EEm7
It's okay to be easily ignored
Em7 (D F# F-walk-up notes on the B string)
I like to believe it was all about
B
love for a child
D#m
And when the house was left in shambles
G#C#m
Who was there to handle all the broken bits of glass
C#mEmBD#mG#m
Was it mom who put my dad out on his ass or the other way around
C#mF#sus4F#
Well I'm far too old to care about that now
BC#m7D#m7C#m7
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
BC#m7
With a little bit more of innocence
D#m7C#m7B
I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young
D#7EEm7
It's okay to be easily ignored
Em7 (D F# F-walk-up notes on the B string)
I'd like to believe it was all about
B
love for a child
AC#mBD#m
It's kinda nice to work the floor since the divorce
AC#mB
I've been enjoying both my Christmases and my birthday cakes
AC#mBD#m
And taking drugs and making love at far too young an age
A
and they never check to see my grades
F#F#/A#B
What a fool I'd be to start complaining now
BC#m7D#m7C#m7
What about taking this empty cup and filling it up
BC#m7
With a little bit more of innocence

I haven't had enough, it's probably because when you're young

( EF#GB ) B
It was all about love...
