Alice Cooper - Give the kid a break
This one is kinda tricky with the timing, so you kinda have to know what your doing, but
chords are all there. p.s. this was a hard song to tab
Don't… know why I'm
down here
Must be something I said
Or some small imperfection
/
In my soul or in my head
Don't know why I'm down here
Don't reserve to roast or bake
I'm fighting off slanderous allegations
Why don't you give the kid a break?
Don't you think maybe we could talk this over
You're a reasonable man
Could we discuss my grave situation
I'm a miserable man
*
And I'm in the frying pan
Chorus:
Give the kid a break
- - -
Give me one good reason why I should
All right, all right, so I made a few mistakes
But for heaven's sake
Watch your language, Kid.
OK, OK, don't get hot
Don't…
question my judgement
He only reaped what he sowed
He cast his pearls before swine
/
And that's good enough for me
Solo (Verse chord progression)
I don't want to talk it over
Even tho' I'm a reasonable man
Sonny, from over here
Looks like you're in no position to bargain
You're a convicted man
You're right in the frying pan
Give the kid a break
Please give me a break
Give the kid a break
Nah nah, I don't think so, man
Come on, you know I got what it takes
Can't you give me a break?
Sure thing kid, when hell freezes over
Ok, don't give the kid a break
Hey you guys, I thought you were on my side
No they don't
Give the kid a break
Yeah, well thanks a lot, pals
Listen boss, maybe we can make a little deal
Isn't there anything I can say
Or some kind of fine I can pay
Something
Don't know why I'm down here
Must be something I said (I'm sorry)
Or some small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
It might be some infection
It might be a small imperfection or a clear case of misdirection
It must be a small imperfection
In my soul or in my head
Give the kid a break
