D D/C# D/B D/A G

D D/C# D/B D/A G

Well, the last one hurt like hell, knocked the wind right out of my sail

A G

I'll heal up someday, but it's gonna leave a beauty of a scar

D D/C# D/B D/A G

I think I'm gonna get drunk, pull the tire iron outta my trunk

A G A

Bang up all of my fenders, just so they can match my heart

Chorus 1:

D D/C# D/B D/A G

I'm trying to get my---self an education

D D/C# D/B D/A G A

Cry one more tear towards graduation

A Bm D E7

Every Sunday punch I've thrown has come back around to clean my clock

G A D

The bell is ringin', down at the school of hard knocks

They're gonna inscribe my name on the Bridge Burners Hall of Fame

As a fool who never learned there ain't no future in it

Some lessons we learn with ease, baby most bring us to our knees

I wish I could learn about love without another woodshed visit.

Chorus 2:

I'm trying to get myself an education

Cry one more tear towards graduation

Every Sunday punch I've thrown has come back around to clean my clock

The bell is ringin', down at the school of hard knocks.

A G D

A little kiss and a band-aid makes those skinned knees heal up fine

E7 A

But there ain't nothin' gonna heal this heart but time

Chorus 3:

While I'm trying to get myself an education

Cry one more tear towards graduation

Every Sunday punch I've thrown has come back around to clean my clock

The bell is ringin', down at the school of hard knocks.
