_ _ _ Would you read us a bedtime story [D#m] please, help me [F] please?
_ _ Alright, you kids get to bed, I'll get the storybook. _ _ _ _ _
You all tucked in?
Yes.
Here we go.
[Fm] Once upon a time not long ago, when people wore pajamas [D#m] and lived like [Fm] slaves,
when laws [C] were stern and justice stood, [N] and people were behaving like they ought the good,
[F] there lived a little boy who was misled by another little boy, and this is what he said.
Me and you tonight [G#m] we gonna make some [B] cash, rob an old [F] folks family, make it look dad.
They did the job, money came with ease, but one [C] couldn't stop, it's like he had a disease,
he robbed another and another, think of my sister and her brother,
tried to rob a man who was a DT undercover, [F] the cop [C] grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic,
he said, [D] keep still boy, no need for [F] saddy, punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap,
but little did he know [F] the little boy was trapped, the kid pulled out a gun, he said, why'd you hit me?
The barrel set straight for the cop's kidney, the cop got scared, the kid he starts to [A] figure,
I'll do years if I pull this trigger, [Fm] so he cold dashed and ran around the block,
cop radios into another lady, [C] cop, he ran by a tree, there he saw the sister,
he [F] shot back but he missed her, looked around good and from expectations,
he decided he'd hit for the subway station, but she was coming and he made a left,
he was running top speed till he was out of breath, knocked an old man down and swore he killed him,
then he made his move to an abandoned building, ran up the stairs up to [C] the top floor,
opened up a door there, guess who he saw?
[Fm] Who?
Dave the dope fiend shooting dope,
who don't know the [D#m] meaning of water [F] nor soap, he said, [N] I need bullets, hurry up, run,
the dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun, [C] he went outside [F] but there was cops all over,
then he dipped into a car, a stolen [F] Nova, raced up the block, 4883,
crashed [G#] into a tree near university, [F] escaped alive though the car was battered,
ran at that [F#] tattered and all the cops [F] scattered, ran out of bullets and he still had static,
grabbed the pregnant lady and pulled out the automatic, pointed at her head, he said the gun was full of lead,
he told the [F#] cops, pack off, for honey here's [C] 10, deep in his heart, he knew he was wrong,
so he let the lady go and he starts to run on, sirens sounded, he seemed astounded and,
before long [F#] the little boy got [Fm] surrounded, he dropped his gun, so went the glory,
and this is the way [F#] I have to end this story, [D#] he was only 17, in a [B] mad man's dream,
the cops shot the kid, [F#] I still hear him [F] scream, this ain't funny [Fm] so don't you dare laugh,
just another case about [C] the wrong path, straight and arrow or your soul gets cast, [F#] good night.
