^GThere's a kid i^Cnside ^AAnd I have him ^Dwith me always ^GThere's a kid i^Cnside ^AWalking down old h^Digh school hallways ^GThere's a kid in^Cside At a d^Aesk, at a d^A7ance, in the h^B7alls, in the showers ^GThere's a kid i^G7nside To this^Cadd9 very ^Cda^Cmaj7y

^GAnd he makes a t^Cry for that ^Cadd9high pop fly ^AThat I f^A7umbled on^Dsus2e Septem^Dber ^GAnd he makes a f^Cuss over som^Cadd9e A plus ^AThat I s^A7houldn't ^Dsus2still re^Dmember ^GAnd he goes a^Clo^Cmaj7ng ^AGetting hurt, getting ^A7mad, fighting fi^B7ghts that are over ^GAnd unless I'm s^G7trong All my sense^Cadd9s are ^Cca^Cmaj7rried ^Caway

^GI could feel my ^Chand – My tr^Cadd9embling hand ^AOn Miche^A7ll's ango^Dsus2ra sweat^Der ^GI can hear my ^Cband – Tha^Cadd9t awful ban^Ad, on^A7ly now it s^Dsus2ounds much b^Detter ^GI can see the k^Cid, The kid I ^Cadd9used to b^Ae On the s^A7tage, on the f^B7ield, on the lunch line ^GI can feel him t^G7ugging at me Every t^Cime I t^Cadd9hink I don't c^C(b9)are I blink

^GAnd he's there ^Daga^Dsus2in, he's t^Che^Cadd9re aga^Cin^{Cmaj7 G}Fighting ancient wrongs, humming ^Dold hit ^Dadd4songs in my ^Che^Cadd9ad ^{C Cmaj7} Singing ^Gcome along, com^Dsus2e along^D, come a^Clo^Cadd9ng for^C t^Cmaj7he ride To a t^Gime and place I could n^Dot ^Dadd4forget if I ^Ctr^Cadd9ied ^{C Cmaj7}

^GAnd I never k^Cnow when the^Cadd9 breeze'll b^Alow ^A7With a rush of ^Dsus2old sens^Dation ^GWhy the kid should w^Cake, and my ^Cadd9heart should^A ache ^A7Every time I ^Dsus2smell ca^Drnations ^GSomething rings the b^Cell, any^Cadd9thing at ^Aall All it ^A7takes is a s^B7lam of a locker ^GOr the switch from ^G7summer to fall A ^Cchange in s^Cadd9eason seems b^C(b9)arely reason,
