Your (Eb)sto ry’s sad to (Cm7)tell: a (Fm7)teen age ne’er do (Bb)well; most (Gm7)mixed up non de (Cm7)lin quent on the (Fm7)block.

What’s (Fm7)left of your ca (Db9)reer now?
Can’t (Eb)e ven get a (Cm7)trade in on your (Abm6)smock.
Beau ty school (Eb)drop out,
no grad u (Fm7)a tion day for (Bb)you.
Beau ty school (Eb)drop out,

Well, at (Eb)least you could have (Cm)tak en time to (Fm7)wash and clean your (Bb)clothes up, af ter (Gm)spend ing all that (Cm)dough to have the (Fm7)doc tor fix your (Bb)nose up.
Ba by, get (Eb)mov ing.
Why keep your (Fm7)fee ble hopes a (Bb)live?
What are you (Eb)prov ing?
You’ve got the (Ab)dream, but not the (Bb)drive.
If you (Eb)go for your di (Eb)plo ma, you could (Ab)join the sten o (Db9)pool.
Turn in your (Eb)teas ing (Cm)comb and (Fm7)go back (Bb)to high (Eb)school.

Beau ty school (E)drop out,
it’s a bout (A)time you knew the (B)score.
Well, they (E)could n’t teach you (C#m)an y thing.

But no (G#m)cus tom er would (C#m)go to you un (F#m)less she was a (B)hook er.
Ba by.
