Dead End Kids Chords

(ver. 1)
Joe Purdy
[Verse]
                            G
Set 'em up for the dead end kids
    C
The young and the restless, the kin
               G                        Em
And all of the houses that they grew up in
        D
Are now gone
 
G
She used to know me by name
       C
Like a child she would dance in the rain
    G                      Em
But now she just drinks cocaine because she can
 
 
[Chorus]
      D                         Em
And I never thought I'd see the day
     C
When all of the paintings went gray
          Em
Like the flowers that lay on the graves
       G            D
Of the ones who die young
 
       G
Shed a tear for the ones who would hope
   C
To hang you with the shortest of rope
        G                         Em             D
Just as quick as they judge, they go to find the next
 
          G
See these breaks in the stones when they crack
  C
Reminds you of all that you lack
         G                                 Em
And your best friends will just turn their backs
             D
Because they can
 
 
[Chorus]
       D                         Em
And I never thought I'd see the day
     C
When all of the paintings went gray
          Em
Like the flowers that lay on the graves
       G            D
Of the ones who die young
 
 
       G
Say a prayer for the ones like you
        C
Who are simple and honest and true
        G                         Em
When we spoke last night well you knew
              D
But you never showed
 
 
      G
And I know you ain't one to complain
               C
If you keep it hid, it would drive you insane
                                         Em
It's just so hard when there's no one to blame
         D
For the fall
 
 
          G
Yeah, and wishing can't make it so;
      C
If it could well I hope that you know
        Em
I would run through the fire and snow
             D
To bring you back
 
 
[Chorus]
      D                         Em
And I never thought I'd see the day
     C
When all of the paintings went gray
          Em
Like the flowers that lay on the graves
       G            D
Of the ones who die young
