Chords and lyrics for School by Supertramp (key of Am).
Verse 1
[Am]I can see you in the morning
When you [Em]go to school
[G]Don't forget our books,
You know you've got to learn the [Dm]golden rule.
[Am]Teacher tells tou Stop your play and go on with your work,
And [G]be like Johnnie Toogood.
Don't you know he [F]never shrinks, he's coming [Am][D][Am][G]along[G][Am][D][Am]
Verse 2
(same chords,except for last line)
After school is over
You're playing in the park,
Don't be out too late
Don't let it get too dark.
They tell you not to hang around
And learn what life's about
And grow up just like them,
Won't let you work it out
And you're [C]full of [E]doubt
[E]Don't do this and [Am]don't do that
[Am]What are they tryin' to do ?
[Dm]Make a good boy of you,
[C]Do they know [Dm]where it's [E]at?
[E]Don't criticise they're [Am]old and wise
Do as they tell you to,
[Dm]Don't want the devil to,
[C]Come and [Dm]pull out [E]your eyes [A][B][E][B][A][E][E]
Verse 3
(Same chords as before)
Maybe I'm mistaken
Expecting you to fight
Or maybe I'm just crazy
I don't know wrong from right. But while I'm still living
I've just got this to say
It's always up to you, if you want to be that,
[F]Want to see that, want to [C]see it that [E]way.
You're coming [Am]along
