THE BALLAD - Millencolin

- Tabbed By: Brent ([email protected])

I don't use an (e) string, so just guessing this is how the regular
chords would look. It sounds perfect to me without the (e) though...

G
The last selection in the ballgame.

E D C G
Does never get a pass. Not appreciated's just his first name.

E D C
He's the scapegoat of the class.

G E D C
There are no friends to cheer him up and no girls, no sweet romance.

G E D C
It's impossible to expand, when you never get a second chance. G E D C
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?

G E D C (ring out)
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery. G E D C
He's not going to the school-prom. He said he had the flu.

G
Trumped-up excuses as he told mom.

E D C
"I�m safer here with you."


She told her son.

G E D C
"Someday, they'll all be sorry for mistreating you.

G
Don't be afraid my son and trust me,

E D C
You'll be someone they will look up to." G E D C
Do you know, who's that guy, who's all alone?

G E D C
Do you care enough to see? He's in pain and misery.
