[verse 1] F#7 Bm It was 6:48, I was walking home Stepped through the gate, and I'm all alone Em I had chicken on the plate, but the food was cold D Then I covered up my face so that no one knows I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble F#7 But then came trouble Bm When my mom walked into the living room She said, "Boy, you gotta tell me what they did to you" Em I said, "You don't wanna know the things I had to do" She said, "Son, you gotta tell me D why you're black and blue" I said I didn't want trouble, F# I'm the boy in the bubble But then came trouble [pre-chorus] Bm And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming Em Mind was running, air was freezing D Put my hands up, put my hands up F# I told this kid I'm ready for a fight [chorus] Bm Em Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain D Every time you curse my name F# I know you want the satisfaction, Em it's not gonna happen Bm Em Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground D It's only gonna let you down F# Come the lightning and the thunder Em Bm You're the one who'll suffer, suffer [verse 2] Bm Well I squared him up, left my chest exposed He threw a quick left hook and it broke my nose Em I had thick red blood running down my clothes D And a sick, sick look 'cause I like it though I said I didn't want trouble, F# I'm the boy in the bubble But then came trouble [pre-chorus] Bm And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming Em Mind was running, nose was bleedin' D Put my hands up, put my hands up F# I told this kid I'm ready for a fight [chorus] Bm Em Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain D Every time you curse my name F# I know you want the satisfaction, Em it's not gonna happen Bm Em Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground D It's only gonna let you down F# Come the lightning and the thunder Em You're the one who'll suffer, suffer [verse 3] Bm It was 6:48, he was walking home With the blood on his hand from my broken nose Em But like every other day, he was scared to go D Back to his house 'cause his pops was home F# Drowning his troubles in whiskey bubbles Just looking for trouble Bm Well, there's no excuse for the things he did But there's a lot at home that he's dealing with Em Because his dad's been drunk since he was a kid D And I hope one day that he'll say to him F# Put down those bubbles and that belt buckle In this broken bubble [chorus] Bm Em Punch my face, do it 'cause I like the pain D Every time you curse my name F# I know you want the satisfaction, Em it's not gonna happen Bm Em Knock me out, kick me when I'm on the ground D It's only gonna let you down F# Come the lightning and the thunder Em Bm You're the one who'll suffer, suffer
