C G F

[Verse]
C         G            F
It's like looking at the dead flower
C          G         F
I lost my pedals, no water
C          G             F
I started acting like a street rat
C           G                F
I found my place under your floor mat
C           G          F
And Mama told me I was strong
C           G          F
She didn't know that she was wrong.

[Chorus]
F                    G
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
    Am
But nothing can break me like you
F                   G
You put me down when I'm alone
     Am
You do, you do, you do
F                                   G
Should've stuck with what I know
N.C.
Should've stuck with Sticks and Stones

[Verse]
C        G           F
Its like looking at a crashed car
C        G           F
Coming home from the town
C          G         F
Started acting like a loose goose
C           G           F
Stip me down and tell who with who
C        G             F
And Mama told me I was strong
C          G                F
She didn't know that she was wrong

[Chorus]
F                  G                     
Sticks and Stones may break my bones
      Am
But nothing can break me like you
F                   G
You put me down when I'm alone
   Am
You do, you do, you do
F                              G
Should've stuck with what I know
N.C.          
Should've stuck with Sticks and Stones
