[Intro] C G Am G F G C [Verse 1]
CThere was this Gkid a few years bAmack, A little olGder than me, Who liFved in my hoCuse and looked a Amlot like my mGother. CThere was this kGid I knew back tAmhen and I was sGure he would be TFhe greatest sGtar I'd ever knFown. C IF'd watch him walk into a rAmoom and he was nGever out of place, He kFnew the ansCwer to eAmvery quesGtion. TFhe square and cube of every pAmrime A name to Ggo with every face, FLike he was kGing upon a thFrone. C
F C [Chorus 1]
And we had noCthing in coAmmmon, NoFthing in coCmmon. My moFther was conFvinced that I failed engFlish Amout of spGite. We had noCthing in coAmmmon NoFthing in coCmmon. And 3F0-some years laFter i'm still toFrturAmed and amaGzed By how DaFivd always gGot the answers rCight.
C G Am G F G [Verse 2]
Now laCter Gon, I knew this gAmuy, He was in hGigh school I think, HFad lots of friCends and was the pAmride of the faGmily. HCe'd call me nGames and punch my hAmead and made me fGeel like a dink And FI would hiGde from him all dFay. C
BFut if I couldn't find a fAmriend (Which happened Gmore than i'd have liked) FI'd go where Che was and sAmulk around hGim. FHe'd say, "You don't know how to tAmhrow, and just don't pGlay your stupid songs," AFnd then he'd tGoss the ball my wFay. C
F C [Chorus 2]
We had noCthing in cAmommon, NotFhing in coCmmon. I thoFught he was a jFerk and who knows wFhat he tAmhought I'd Gbe. We had noCthing in cAmommon, NotFhing in coCmmon. But F20-some years lFater I'm still graFteful Amand suGrprised By the liFttle gifts that DaGvid gave to Cme.
G Am Am Am [Verse 3]
FI knew this guy before I Amwed He had a viGsion in his heFad Of how his lCife would play oGut and his drAmeams would come tFrue But he was stumFbling, he was staClled And every yCear after he caAmlled I'd just think Amman, there goes the loFnliest Amguy I ever kGnew G
[Bridge]
PGeople think i'm faFiling They never underGstand But temporary set baFcks Are part of what I plaFnned
And David had his viGsion And David played his gFame FWe have nothing much in coCmmon F FBut we are mGore or less the sCame
