[Verse 1]
G
As a point of conversation, he was referencing relation
C G
From the corner he came from, the company he'd keep
G
She was from the country far from the city
C G
They shared one love, they were destined for defeat
C
He was tortured he was troubled
G
She was sick and she was lost
A D
Searching for an answer, rebels with a cause
G
Doing what they do to get what they need
C G
Life was cheap, there were no guarantees
D
[Chorus]
C G
Dead end kids you don't want 'em you don't need 'em
D G
And you'll always find a reason when you need to write 'em off
C G
Dead end kids you can take 'em you can leave 'em
D G
You said they'd never listen you said they'd be better off
D D
But we believed in you, we knew it from the start
D G C G
Hey kid! You've got heart
D C G
[Verse 2]
G
They were wretched they were raw, they were tough and they were mean
D G
They were scared they were cold, they were somewhere in between
G
Looking for a chance from someone who believed
D G
Remember what you see ain't what always what it seems
D G
So give a kid hand, lift him up and dust him off
C D
Many will stumble others will be lost
G
For all who failed so many would succeed
D
Don't be angry at the kids, be angry at the greed
D
[Chorus 2]
C G
Dead end kids you don't want 'em you don't need 'em
D G
And you'll always find a reason when you need to write 'em off
C G
Dead end kids you can take 'em you can leave 'em
D G
You said they'd never listen you said they'd be better off
D D
But we believed in you, we knew it from the start

Hey kid! You've got heart
