Dirty Chords

[Verse 1]
F#                              D#m
The playground kids are all the same
B                           C#
They stick together for the game
F#                              D#m
As they grow up the friendships change
B                               C#
Insulting starts, it's the teen age
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 F#
Oh
Children!
 D#m
Oh
Listen!
    B
I'm down on my knees
        C#
Friends now enemies
 
[Chorus]
F#
I'm not looking pretty
D#m
Spat upon with hate and mockery
B
People wanna hurt and injure me
C#
So now the kids are looking dirty
F#
I get sick of trying
D#m
I'm worn out fighting prejudice
B
Wiping off those dirty offenses
C#
So now the kids are looking dirty
 
[Verse 2]
F#                                    D#m
The scars and scrapes don't make them frail
B                               C#
Your words won't put them down again
F#                                 D#m
Inside they're damaged but they'll still
B                               C#
Show you that they don't give a shhh...
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 F#
Oh

  C#
Daring you to throw your stones

Like who's the next one to suffer
       F#
But we can't stop the heat
           D#m
