                        Gm
Well I wouldn't buy no merchandise
And I wouldn't go to war
                        D#
And I mixed with other colours
But the nurse doesn't care
                   Gm
And I hide under blankets
Or did I run away
                  D#
I really can't remember
Last time I saw the light of day

    C#          Fm
But I remember Sam
                    C
'cause he was like me

Chorus:
   D#           A#
Scream like a baby
D#         Dm
Sam was a gun
    Am                E  
And I never knew his last name
        F            G
And we never had no fun

Well, they came down hard on the faggots
And they came down hard on the street
They came down harder on Sam
And they all knew he was beat
He was thrown into the wagon
Blindfolded, chains and they stomped on us
And took away our clothes and things
And pumped us full of strange drugs
And, oh, I saw Sam falling
Spitting in their eyes
But now I lay me down to sleep
And now I close my eyes

Now I'm learning to be
a part of society

Chorus

   Dm         A  
No athletic program,
    C           C#
no discipline, no book
    Dm               A  
He just sat in the backseat
   C           C#
swearing he'd seek revenge

        G               F#
But he jumped into the furnace
 F           E        D#
Singing old songs we loved
