G D There's a place in the world for the angry young man Am7 D With his working class ties and his radical plans G D He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl Am7 G D And he's always at home with his back to the wall F G7 C And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost G A D And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on his cross G D Cmaj7 And he likes to be known as the angry young man Give a moment or two to the angry young man With his foot in his mouth and his heart in his hand He's been stabbed in the back, he's been misunderstood It's a comfort to know his intentions are good And he sits in a room with a lock on the door With his maps and his medals laid out on the floor And he likes to be known as the angry young man F Gm7 I believe I've passed the age A# A# C C Of consciousness and righteous rage F A# C D I found that just surviving was a noble fight G Am7 I once believed in causes too C C D D I had my pointless point of view G C A And life went on no matter who was wrong or A9sus4 A A7 D D9sus4 D D7 right And there's always a place for the angry young man With his fist in the air and his head in the sand And he's never been able to learn from mistakes So he can't understand why his heart always breaks And his honor is pure, and his courage as well And he's fair, and he's true, and he's boring as hell And he'll go to the grave as an angry old man Yes, there's always a place for the angry young man With his working class ties and his radical plans He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl And he's always at home with his back to the wall And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on his cross And he likes to be known as the angry young man | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA A7 A# Am7 B C C# Cmaj7 D D7 E F G G7 Gm7 Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
