The Ballad

(início)

                         G
The last selection in the ballgame.
    Em7  Dsus4  Cadd9
Does never get a pass. Not appreciated's just his
G
first name.
          Em7    Dsus4   Cadd9
He's the scapegoat of the class.
              G         Em7
There are no friends to cheer him up and no girls,
  Dsus4    Cadd9
no sweet romance.
                  G                Em7
It's impossible to expand, when you never get a
Dsus4  Cadd9
second chance.

      G                Em7         D   Cadd9
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
      G              Em7          D            Cadd9
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
                      G              Em7      Dsus4
He's not going to the school-prom. He said he had
   Cadd9
the flu.
                        G
Trumped-up excuses as he told mom.
     Em7   Dsus4     Cadd9
- I´m safer here with you.
She told her son.
                  G     Em7             Dsus4  Cadd9
- Someday, they'll all be sorry for mistreating you.
                          G
Don't be afraid my son and trust me,
      Em7                 Dsus4      Cadd9
-You'll be someone they will look up to.

      G                Em7        D    Cadd9
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
      G              Em7          D            Cadd9
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
Do you care to see?

      G5               E5         D5    C5
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?
      G5             E5           D5            C5
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
