Verse 1:
Em B
I was young, just a skinny little son of a gun.
G B
I craved adventure so I jumped into a car. To follow a star.
Em B
I didn't get far. It was just a car.
Em B
So I got drunk, I stripped naked and turned cartwheels across the floor.
G B
But my lady couldn't take it anymore, GET OUT THE DOOR!
Em B
There was thunder in my chunder as my folks looked on in wonder
Chorus:
G D G
All the stupid little things that I have done.
G D Em C
Well I did 'em, I did 'em just for fun, fun, fun.
G Bm Em C
But all the stupid little things that we all do. (woo-hoo)
G D G B
Little things that make us laugh and cry, kiss my ass and run, run, run.
Intro Riff: Em Em Em B
Verse 2:
I got high, one night I broke into the local bowling green.
I could have sworn it was a giant trampoline, how obscene.
Like bowling greens, love trampolines.
I fell in love. With this pretty little pretty little girl.
'Cause her sister was a woman of the world. Ah what a girl.
I got a blister on my mister but I swear I didn't kiss her.
Chorus:
All the stupid little things that I have done.
Well I did 'em, I did 'em just for fun, fun, fun.
But all the stupid little things that we all do. (woo-hoo)
So many things that make us laugh and cry, whip my ass and run, run, run.
Intro Riff: Em Em Em B
Solo: A G
Bridge: Em
Em
Well here I am again, down on upon my knees,
Hoping that Jesus Christ will come and save my sorry little ass, one more time.
So I pray, and I pray, and I pray, and here's what he has to say:
Chorus:
G D G
Don't give up on your stupid little dreams.
G D Em C
Don’t give up, don’t give up on all your stupid little dreams.
G Bm Em C
'Cos all those stupid little dreams and schemes,
G D G Bm
Make you live and die, and wonder why, and try and try and laugh and
G D G C
All the stupid little things that we have done.
G D Em C
But no regrets no regrets no not a single one.
G Bm Em C
But all the stupid little things that we all do.
G D G B
So many things that make us laugh and cry, kiss my ass and run, run, run.
