This way it goes the whole verse:

Em C D (without Part II)

Em

I saw a weird boy

C D

He looked at me with a look of pure hate

Em

Nobody knew

C

All the grief

D

where he'd been

Em

he was a sad boy

C D

he was a victim of a dirty good time

Em C D

feely games in the back of his boarded up estate

Chorus:

D C Em

soon enough, he's pickin' on me,

kicked my head in 'cos that's all that he'd seen

D C Em Part II

soon enough he's picking on me picking on me

Verse 2:

Em

I told my teacher

C D

she look at me so indifferently

Em C D

her whole night was spent marking paper red tape

Em

so I had to learn to fight

C D

kicked her sister 'cos I had no respect

Em

so here's the start of another war

C D

you against me

Chorus:

D C Em

soon enough he's pickin' on me

D C Em

kicked my head in 'cos that's all that he'd seen

D C Em Part II

soon enough he's pickin on me, pickin on me

----End-----
