      C           E7          F    G
I was eight years old with a furry animal
     C E7 F G
Oh-oh
       C       E7          F            G
Had to say goodbye to the fuzzy little guy
    C  E7
Oh no

Chorus:
          F
Asked my neighbours
             G          C      E7       F  G
“Would you please take care of him for me?”
       C       E7         F   G
Don’t let him know we’re goin’
      C       E7      F G
Take care of him for me
      C       E7      F G
Take care of him for me

I was thirteen years old with a heart made of gold
Oh-oh
Tried to make some friends,
almost killed myself instead
Oh no

Chorus:
They said the meds would take
care of things for me
I don't think they are working
Take care of things for me
Take care of things for me

Today I felt scared thinkin' 'bout your empty bed
Oh-oh
But I know you'll be fine, yeah,
you've got to stay alive
Oh-oh

Chorus:
Just don't forget to take care of you for me
I've been where you are goin'
Take care of you for me
Take care of you for me
