Standard (EADGBE)

Sitting in my room feelin' sorry For myself - I can't feel worse

 Well what else? I wonder what I could say

 To stop the voices taunting, laughing

 The way they're acting, I wish they'd just disappear

 The joke is always on me (it's always on me)

Why don't they understand That we are all the same

 And we all feel lost at times Why don't they understand

  (Break)

That someone else's pain, Is not for gain

Sticks and stones won't break my soul

 Get out of the way, I'm invincible

Throw them down 'Cause the one you hurt's not around

  (Break)

Not around It's not your place - honestly

In the end you'll be the victim You're the one who has to live with yourself

 And when you're reachin' for help They'll be no one (there's no one)

Why don't you understand That we are all the same

 And we all feel lost at times Why don't you understand

  (Break)

That someone else's pain, Is not for gain

Sticks and stones won't break my soul

 Get out of the way, I'm invincible

Throw them down 'Cause the one you hurt's not around

 Not around It's not your place - honestly

I won't live in chains I've got somethin' to give

 I won't play these games Yeah, I'd rather live

 You know I've come too far - to be like you are

Why don't you understand

 That we are all the same

Sticks and stones won't break my soul

 Get out of the way, I'm invincible

Throw them down

La la la, la, la, La la la, la, la, La la la, la, la, La, la, la

Throw them down 'Cuz the one you hurt's not around (not around)

 Not around (not around) Not around anymore

  (Break)

It's not your place - honestly
