Boy In The Bubble Tab de uke por Alec Benjamin

verse 1 
       Am 
It was 6:48, I was walking home 

Stepped through the gate, and
I'm all alone
     
I had
  Dm
chicken on the plate, but the
food was cold

Then I covered up my face so
that no one knows
C 
I didn't want trouble, I'm the
boy in the bubble
G 
But then came trouble 
       
When my
 Am
mom walked into the living room

She said, 'Boy, you gotta tell
me what they did to you'
       
I said,
  Dm
'You don't wanna know the
things I had to do'

She said, 'Son, you gotta tell
me why you're black and blue'
C 
I said I didn't want trouble,
I'm the boy in the bubble
G 
But then came trouble 

Pre-Chorus 
      
And my
 Am
heart was pumping, chest was
screaming
  Dm 
Mind was running, air was
freezing
 C 
Put my hands up, put my hands
up
 
I
 G
told this kid I'm ready for a
fight

N.C.

  Am                         
Punch my face, do it 'cause I
Dm
like the pain
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em     
I know you want the
             Dm
satisfaction, it's not gonna
happen
  Am                          
Knock me out, kick me when I'm
Dm
on the ground
                 C 
It's only gonna let you down 
        
Come the
   Em
lightning and the thunder
 Dm                          
You're the one who'll suffer,
Am
suffer 


verse 2 
      
Well I
  Am
squared him up, left my chest
exposed

He threw a quick left hook and
it broke my nose
     
I had
  Dm
thick red blood running down
my clothes

And a sick, sick look 'cause I
like it though
C 
I said I didn't want trouble,
I'm the boy in the bubble
G 
But then came trouble 

Pre-Chorus 
      
And my
Am
heart was pumping, chest was
screaming
 Dm 
Mind was running, nose was
bleedin'
 C 
Put my hands up, put my hands
up
G 
I told this kid I'm ready for
a fight

N.C.

  Am                         
Punch my face, do it 'cause I
 Dm
like the pain
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em     
I know you want the
             
satisfaction,
Dm
it's not gonna happen
 Am                       
Knock me out, kick me when
   Dm
I'm on the ground
                C 
It's only gonna let you down 
        
Come the
  Em
lightning and the thunder
 Dm                          
You're the one who'll suffer,
Am
suffer 


verse 3 
      
It was
Am
6:48, he was walking home

With the blood on his hand
from my broken nose
        
But like
  Dm
every other day, he was scared
to go

Back to his house 'cause his
pops was home
C 
Drowning his troubles in
whiskey bubbles
G 
Just looking for trouble 
             
Well, there's
Am
no excuse for the things he did

But there's a lot at home that
he's dealing with
           
Because his
 Dm
dad's been drunk since he was
a kid

And I hope one day that he'll
say to him
C 
Put down those bubbles and
that belt buckle
G 
In this broken bubble 

N.C.

 Am                          
Punch my face, do it 'cause I
Dm
like the pain
                C 
Every time you curse my name 
            Em     
I know you want the
             
satisfaction,
Dm
it's not gonna happen
  Am                          
Knock me out, kick me when I'm
Dm
on the ground
                C 
It's only gonna let you down 
        
Come the
 Em
lightning and the thunder
  D                          
You're the one who'll suffer,
Am
suffer
