Boy In The Bubble(Chords)

	        
verse 1 
       Am 
It was 6:48, I was walking home 

Stepped through the gate, and I'm all alone 
        Dm 
I had chicken on the plate, but the food was cold 

Then I covered up my face so that no one knows 
C 
I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble 
G 
But then came trouble 
         Am 
When my mom walked into the living room 

She said, 'Boy, you gotta tell me what they did to you' 
          Dm 
I said, 'You don't wanna know the things I had to do' 

She said, 'Son, you gotta tell me why you're black and blue' 
C 
I said I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble 
G 
But then came trouble 

Pre-Chorus 
        Am 
And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming 
  Dm 
Mind was running, air was freezing 
 C 
Put my hands up, put my hands up 
   G 
I told this kid I'm ready for a fight 

N.C. 

  Am                          Dm 
Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain 
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em                   Dm 
I know you want the satisfaction, it's not gonna happen 
  Am                           Dm 
Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground 
                 C 
It's only gonna let you down 
            Em 
Come the lightning and the thunder 
 Dm                           Am 
You're the one who'll suffer, suffer 


verse 2 
         Am 
Well I squared him up, left my chest exposed 

He threw a quick left hook and it broke my nose 
        Dm 
I had thick red blood running down my clothes 

And a sick, sick look 'cause I like it though 
C 
I said I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble 
G 
But then came trouble 

Pre-Chorus 
       Am 
And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming 
 Dm 
Mind was running, nose was bleedin' 
 C 
Put my hands up, put my hands up 
G 
I told this kid I'm ready for a fight 

N.C. 

  Am                           Dm 
Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain 
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em                    Dm 
I know you want the satisfaction, it's not gonna happen 
 Am                           Dm 
Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground 
                C 
It's only gonna let you down 
           Em 
Come the lightning and the thunder 
 Dm                           Am 
You're the one who'll suffer, suffer 


verse 3 
       Am 
It was 6:48, he was walking home 

With the blood on his hand from my broken nose 
           Dm 
But like every other day, he was scared to go 

Back to his house 'cause his pops was home 
C 
Drowning his troubles in whiskey bubbles 
G 
Just looking for trouble 
              Am 
Well, there's no excuse for the things he did 

But there's a lot at home that he's dealing with 
             Dm 
Because his dad's been drunk since he was a kid 

And I hope one day that he'll say to him 
C 
Put down those bubbles and that belt buckle 
G 
In this broken bubble 

N.C. 

 Am                           Dm 
Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain 
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em                    Dm 
I know you want the satisfaction, it's not gonna happen 
  Am                           Dm 
Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground 
                C 
It's only gonna let you down 
          Em 
Come the lightning and the thunder 
  D                           Am 
You're the one who'll suffer, suffer
