B5 E5 He soon found out he could not work, the money was no good F#5 E5 B5 E5 D5 This child of the city hit the welfare kitty, did some runnin' for the hoods B5 E5 And the logic of the street was such, that everything was bent F#5 E5 B5 E5 D5 There's a lot of white collars, stealing government dollars, wouldn't notice such a little percent

B5 E5 Now I went to his graduation, in some Brooklyn overnight jail F#5 E5 B5 E5 D5 He said he was a member of the rock'n roll nation, but his face was drawn 'n pale B5 E5 They gave him a suspended sentence, 'n he got straight on the phone F#m E5 B5 E5 D5 Called a big, big, man with a Miami tan 'n said "Hi I'm Al Capone, the second"

Verse 4
B5 E5 Now his first hit came at seventeen, his second was his last F#m E5 B5 E5 D5 Some dealer ran screaming from the scene, as the bullets whistled past B5 E5 'N the cop that killed him shook his head 'n said "I swear the truth F#m E5 B5 E5 D5 When I know it was some old, old man 'n not a restless youth."

Verse 5
B5 E5 Now the moral of this story is that all he saw was greed F#m E5 B5 E5 D5 Legal, illegalities 'n all them politician thieves B5 E5 Good people of the U.S.A. if you want your kids to grow F#m E5 B5 E5 D5 Then check your harvest carefully, don't reap; before you sow
Chorus
B5 E5 Restless youth, restless youth C#5 B5 Restless youth, I just know he's a restless youth B5 E5 Restless youth, restless youth C#5 B5 You're gonna lose cause you know you're a Restless Youth...
