Caught In The Crowd Intro: Gadd9, Emadd9, Cadd9, Gadd9
There was Gadd9a guy at my schooEmadd9l, when I was in high school. We'd ridCadd9e side by side inGadd9 the morning on our bicycles. Never even spokeEmadd9n or faced each other, ButCadd9 on the last hilGadd9l we'd race each other.
When we reached the racks, we'd eEmadd9ach go our own way. I waCadd9sn't in his classes, I Gadd9didn't know his name. When we finally got to speak, he jusEmadd9t stared at his feet. And muCadd9mbled a sentence that ended withGadd9 James.
I was young and caught in the crowd, I didn't know then what I know now. I was dumb and I was proud, And I'm sorry. If I could go back and do it again, I'd be someone you could call friend. Please, please believe that I'm sorry. Well he was quite a big guy, kinda shy and quiet. When the kids called him weird, he didn't try to deny it. Every lunchtime he'd spend walking by himself, Round the boundary of the ground 'til he heard the bell. Well one day I found him, joined him on his walk. We were silent for a while, until we started to talk. I told him my family were fighting in court, He said his Step Dad and him always fought. We talked about music, he was into punk. Told me all the bands that I liked were junk. I said I'd never heard a song the sex pistols sang, I laughed back at him, and then the bell rang. I was young and caught in the crowd, I didn't know then what I know now. I was dumb and I was proud, And I'm sorry. If I could go back and do it again, I'd be someone you could call friend. Please, please believe that I'm sorry. It was after School in the afternoon, The corridors were crowded as we came out of the rooms. Three guys I knew pushed him into the cement, Threw away his bag and said he had no friends. He yelled that he did, and he looked around. He tried getting up, but they pushed him on down. That's when he saw me, called out my name. And I turned my back, and just walked away. Yeah, I turned my back, and just walked away. I was young and caught in the crowd, I didn't know then what I know now. I was dumb and I was proud, And I'm sorry. If I could go back and do it again, I'd be someone you could call friend. Please, please believe that I'm sorry. Please, please believe that I'm sorry.
