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
