(Ian Hunter)
Played in F#. This is transcribed with capo at 2nd fret E Well, I don't follow any trend B7 I don't sulk for hours on end E I don't wanna reach out and punch someone E B7 E I am what I hated when I was young E I don't wear designer clothes B7 I ain't got pins in my nose E I ain't got a tattoo on my bum E B7 E I am what I hated when I was young A E B7 E A E B7 Poverty was a wonderful thing everyone enjoyed A E B7 E We were eatin' grass not smokin' it D Wasn't like this when I was a boy A Wasn't like this when I was a boy E I don't rob old peoples' homes B7 I don't steal no cellular phones E I kinda like my Dad and Mum E B7 E I am what I hated when I was young E I don't holler, I don't hoot B7 I don't act like a nincompoop E I don't hide when the police come E B7 E I am what I hated when I was young A E B7 E A E B7 I'm slowing down, I'm getting old 'n' my back is getting bad A E B7 E I just sit and moan all day D Wasn't like this when I was a lad A Wasn't like this when I was a lad E Comb my hair, brush my teeth, B7 Wash my feet more than once a week E 'n' I never leave my flies undone E B7 E I am what I hated when I was young E I'm the original mixed up kid B7 I ain't proud of what I did E Now I'm older, calmed down some E B7 E I hate what I used to be when I was young E B7 E I hate what I used to be when I was young E B7 E I hate what I used to be when I was young
