intro and verses



Riff 1

Coming home from the school today

Crying all along the way

Ain't no way for a boy to be

Begging ma to shave me please



Riff 1

You little punks think you own this town

Well someday someone's gonna bring you down

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy



Riff 1

You, take back what you said now

That's the last time i cry

You tell me what it is to be a friend, now

'Till i walk beside you on the street now



B

Ma won't shave me

A

Jesus can't save me

Riff 2

Riff 1

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy

Life ain't pretty for a dog faced boy



Riff 1

Going back to the school tomorrow

Hang my hairy head in sorrow

Ain't no way for a boy to be

Aint' no way to set me free, now

Ma won't shave me

A

Jesus can't save me

Do some variations on that with some nice gritty distortion 

and it should sound bootiful! 
Tabbed by 'lil sleeves

Just one guitar riff all the way through.
