Verse: Db Gb Db Johnny deals a bit of blow on the side Gb Db Thinks that he's invincible, hates a fight Gb Db Jenny walks the streets alone she was fine Gb Db But she got kicked out of her home in hard times Chorus: Gb The messed up kids are on the corner With no money They sell their time they sell their drugs They sell their body B And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets Bbm So far away Gb It's a washed out Saturday Bbm The sky all pastel shades Gb Under breeze block palisades Verse: Db Gb Db Lights are smashed, the streets are closed in the town Gb Db Places no one really goes to hang around Gb Db Give up on us long ago with no hope Gb Db All you hear's the cold wind blow and get stoned Chorus: Gb The messed up kids are on the corner With no money They sell their time they sell their drugs They sell their body B And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets Bbm So far away Gb It's a washed out Saturday Bbm The sky all pastel shades F Under breeze block palisades Chorus: Gb The messed up kids are on the corner With no money They sell their time they sell their drugs They sell their body B And everywhere I see a sea of empty pockets Beautiful girls with eyes so dark within their sockets Bbm So far away Gb It's a washed out Saturday Bbm The sky all pastel shades F Under breeze block palisades This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

How to play Messed Up Kids on ukulele
The strumming pattern that fits is the driving 4/4: d – d – d u d u. Expect a medium pace, around 118 bpm. You are playing it in Gb major. The fretting hand earns its keep in this one: I have the chords at the proficient level. Drive the eighths hard and let the strum jangle like the guitar line.
