[G#m] am not [A] a bad man, I [F#m] want you to [B] know
[E]
I signed up when I was [A] 19, now I'm 24 years old
[B] There's ghosts that follow [A] me around, [F#m] things [B] I've seen and [E]
did
But I am not [A] a bad man, just an American [B]
kid

I bet you [A] see a stranger when [E] you look at me
And I look [G#] in the mirror, I know that's [C#m] what I see
Got some pills to get [A] my head right, but they don't work [C#] so [E]
well
So I drank a [A] little more tonight, and here's where [E] I fell
