Emi                                          Hmi
I can see you in the morning, when you go to school
D                                                         Ami
Don't forget your books, you know you've got to learn the golden rule.
    Emi                                                    Hmi
The teacher tells you: Stop your play and go on with your work,
    D                                          C
And be like Johnnie Toogood. Don't you know he never shrinks, he's

coming along 

Emi                                         Hmi
After school is over, you're playing in the park,
D                                      Ami
"Don't be out too late", "Don't let it get too dark."
     Emi                                        H
They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about
    D                                     C
And grow up just like them, won't let you work it out and you're full of
 Emi  A  Emi  D  Emi  A  Emi  A
doubt 

Emi                           Hmi
Maybe I'm mistaken, expecting you to fight
   D                                 Ami
Or maybe I'm just crazy I don't know wrong from right.
    Emi                                   Hmi
But while I'm still living, I've just got this to say
     D                                C
It's always up to you, if you want to be that, want to see it that
 Emi A  Emi  D  Emi  A  Emi  A
way. 

H                 Emi             G
Don't do this and don't do that - What are they tryin' to do ? -
       A           H
Make a good boy of you
        H                                Emi
Do they know where it's at? - Don't criticise they're ols and wise -
G                       A                        H
Do as they tell you to, don't want the devil to, Come and pull out
your eyes.
              Emi    A  Emi  D  Emi  Emi  A  Emi  A
You're coming along
