(intro)

|G---|D---|C-D-|G---|


(verse 1)

G                          D
It keeps on getting harder to keep on keeping on

     C                   D            G
with everybody screaming orders in my ear.

                              D
I want to be my own man.  I'd love to walk it alone.

         C                      D             G 
But everytime I leave my home, this is what I hear.



(chorus)

          C
Keep your nose clean, head above water.

          G
keep your feet on the ground. keep your hands off my daughter.

          D
Keep your back to the wind.  Keep your thoughts to yourself.

   C
An eye on the clock.  Keep an eye on your health.

  D
I wish they'd let me just keep to myself.

                G
I do fine on my own.


(verse 2)
G                                   D
They say to keep up with the times, keep up with the Jones.

C                D            G
Keep up with the rest of your class.

                               D
So I keep an open mind in this close minded world.

         C                           G
Keeps on telling me to keep off this grass.

(chorus x 2)
(lead break : verse chords)


     G                         D
So I keep an open mind.  Its a close minded world.

       C             D            G C G C G
Always telling me to keep of this grass.
