Intro

D G A Bm D G A G D

DI never was a straight lace, straight-A stuGdent

Teacher's pAet or child prodiDgy

I wasn't gonna get rich throwin' a Gfootball

It'd take too lAong to get a lGaw degreeD

They tried to talk some sAense into my big hEmead

But the bDest advice that I Gever got was from my Asister's rock sGtar boyDfriend

Chorus

Just gAet your Gguitar and leDarn how to play

CAut up some jeGans, cDome up with a name

When you're lAiving in a woGrld that you dBmon't underGstand

Maybe buy your mAama that CGadillacD
