Verse 1
~~~~~~~
D# A#
When I was young I was so full of fear
F G#
I hid behind anger and held back the tears
D# A#
It was me against the world and I was sure that I'd win
F G#
But the world fought back punished me for my sins
D# A#
I felt so alone so insecure
F G#
I blamed you instead and made sure I was heard
D# A#
And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
F G#
But I couldn't hear what they had to say

I was wrong I realise now that I was wrong
Verse 2

D# A#
And I think about my loves well I've had a few
F G#
I'm sorry that I hurt them, did I hurt you too?
D# A#
I took what I wanted put my heart on the shelf
F G#
How can you love when you don't love yourself
D# A#
It was me against the world I was sure that I'd win
F G#
But the world fought back punished me for my sins

And they tried to warn me of my evil ways
F G#
But I couldn't hear what they had to say

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SOCIAL DISTORTION tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
