Verses:
        Dm                              F
You're always aiming paper airplanes at me when you're around
    Am                                        D
You build me up like building blocks just so you can bring me down
Dm                                     F
You can crush my candy cane but you'll never catch me cry
       Am                             D
If you dangle that diploma and I deck you, don't be surprised


          Dm                   F
I know my abc's, yet you keep teaching me
            Am                    D
I say, xxxx your degree, alphabet boy
                 Dm                            F
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
             Am               D
xxxx all your abc's, alphabet boy


                 Am      G
I'm not a little kid now
              F      C
Watch me get big now
                     Am         G
Spell my name on the fridge now
                       F    C
With all your alphabet toys
                     Am      G
You won the spelling bee now
                         F       C
But are you smarter than me now?
                         Am         G
You're the prince of the playground
                D
Little alphabet boy

Interlude -x4-:
Dm F Am D

Dm                           F
Apples aren't always appropriate apologies
Am                                   D
Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
Dm                                 F
You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
    Am
But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly
    D
And your dictionary's destroyed


          Dm                   F
I know my abc's, yet you keep teaching me
            Am                    D
I say, xxxx your degree, alphabet boy
                 Dm                            F
You think you're smarter than me with all your bad poetry
             Am               D
xxxx all your abc's, alphabet boy


                 Am      G
I'm not a little kid now
              F      C
Watch me get big now
                     Am         G

You're the prince of the playground
                D
Little alphabet boy


F            Am            G                D   - E -
    Alphabet boy, alphabet boy, my alphabet boy 
F               Am               G          D   - E -
    My Alphabet boy, my alphabet boy,  Ooh-ooh


                 Am      G
I'm not a little kid now
              F      C
Watch me get big now
                     Am         G
Spell my name on the fridge now

You won the spelling bee now
                         F       C
But are you smarter than me now?
                         Am         G
You're the prince of the playground
