Boy in the Bubble

Boy in the Bubble: Chords

 
       SIm
It was 6:48, I was walking home
                   
Stepped through the gate and I'm all alone
      MIm
I had chicken on the plate, but the food was cold

Then I covered up my face so that no one knows
RE                           
 I didn't want trouble, I'm the boy in the bubble
FA#  
 But then came trouble
        SIm 
When my mom walked into the living room

She said, "Boy, you gotta tell me 
         
what they did to you"
         MIm
I said, "You don't wanna know 

the things I had to do"

She said, "Son, you gotta tell me 

why you're black and blue"
RE
 I said I didn't want trouble, 

I'm the boy in the bubble
FA#
 But then came trouble
      SIm               
And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming
MIm
 Mind was running, air was freezing
RE6
 Put my hands up, put my hands up
  FA#7
I told this kid I'm ready for a fight

SIm
Punch my face
               MIm
Do it 'cause I like the pain
               RE
Every time you curse my name
           FA#7
I know you want the satisfaction, 

it's not gonna happen
SIm
Knock me out
                 MIm
Kick me when I'm on the ground
                RE
It's only gonna let you down
         FA#7
Come the lightning and the thunder
                              
You're the one who'll suffer, suffer

        SIm
Well, I squared him up, left my chest exposed

He threw a quick left hook and it broke my nose
      MIm
I had thick red blood running down my clothes

And a sick, sick look 'cause I like it though
RE
 I said I didn't want trouble, 
    
I'm the boy in the bubble
FA#
 But then came trouble
      SIm       
And my heart was pumping, chest was screaming
MIm
 Mind was running, nose was bleeding
RE
 Put my hands up, put my hands up
  FA#7
I told this kid I'm ready for a fight

SIm
Punch my face
               MIm
Do it 'cause I like the pain
               RE
Every time you curse my name
           FA#7
I know you want the satisfaction, 

it's not gonna happen
SIm
Knock me out
                 MIm
Kick me when I'm on the ground
                RE
It's only gonna let you down
         FA#7
Come the lightning and the thunder
                          
You're the one who'll suffer

       SIm
It was 6:48, he was walking home

With the blood on his hand from my broken nose
         MIm
But like every other day, he was scared to go

Back to his house 'cause his pops was home
RE                                  
  Drowning his troubles in whiskey bubbles
FA#
  Just looking for trouble
              SIm
Well, there's no excuse for the things he did

But there's a lot at home that he's dealing with
            MIm
Because his dad's been drunk since he was a kid

And I hope one day that he'll say to him
RE
 "Put down those bubbles and that belt buckle
FA#
  In this broken bubble"

SIm
Punch my face
               MIm
Do it 'cause I like the pain
               RE
Every time you curse my name
           FA#7
I know you want the satisfaction, 

it's not gonna happen
SIm
Knock me out
                 MIm
Kick me when I'm on the ground
                RE
It's only gonna let you down
         FA#7
Come the lightning and the thunder
                              SIm
You're the one who'll suffer, suffer
