Verse1
[D] You're feeling nervous, aren't you, [Am7] boy?
With your quiet [G] voice and impeccable [D] style
Don't ever let them steal your [Am7] joy
And your gentle [G] ways, to keep 'em from running [D] wild
They can kick dirt in your face
[Am7] Dress you down, and tell you that your place
Is in the [G] middle, when they hate the way you [D] shine
I see you tugging on your [Am7] shirt
Trying to hide in[G] side of it and hide how much it [D] hurts
Refrain
Let 'em [D] laugh while they [Am7] can
Let 'em [G] spin, let 'em [Gm] scatter in the [D] wind
I have been to the [F#] movies, I've seen how it [G] ends
And the [Gm] joke's on [D] them
Verse2
[D] You get discouraged, don't you, gir[Am7] l?
It's your brother's w[G] orld for a while longer [D]
We gotta [D] dance with the devil on a river
To beat the str[Am7] eam
Call it living the [G] dream, call it kicking the l[D] adder
They c[D] ome to kick dirt in your face
To [Am7] call you weak and then displace you
After [G] carrying your baby on your back across the des[D] ert
I saw your eyes behind your [Am7] hair
And you're looking ti[G] red, but you don't look sc[D] ared
Refrain
Let 'em [D] laugh while they [Am7] can
Let 'em [G] spin, let 'em [Gm] scatter in the [D] wind
I have been to the [F#] movies, I've seen how it [G] ends
And the [Gm] joke's on [D] them
