Intro:
A



A
years ago
i lost my guard
and ever since
it's been hard
D
standing up
like a man
like a father
understand
A
that all i do
is not enough
for myself
i am tough
D
on myself
i need to freeze
i need direction
aw please

A               E
show me all the rules girl
D                       A
i just want to get them wrong
A               E
show me all the rules girl
D              A
i just want to belong

but first i'm gonna sing my song

i try to do
what is right
i try to win
without a fight
from time to time
i turn around
to their gun
on the ground
i try to seek
more than this
a nice smile
a wet kiss
don't wanna miss
what i'm looking for
but it's behind
your door

A               E
show me all the rules girl
D                       A
i just want to get them wrong
A               E
show me all the rules girl
D              A
i just want to belong
