Bm G D A
[VERSE ONE]
Bm G
Johnny was a young boy, he liked playing at the park
D A
And Johnny said, "Oh, dad, can you take me now?"
Bm G
Johnny was young, never hurt no one, too early for that
D
He was at the park, he met a boy named Jimmy
A Bm
He's a cutie and he chose him, oh
[VERSE TWO]
Bm G D
Take my heart, take my soul, share my crayons, share my goals
D A
His daddy walked by with a sigh, said, "Johnny, sit by my side
Bm G
I'm gonna give you the best advice you've ever heard in your life
D
See that boy named Jimmy, yeah, he's a cutie
A
But no, no, Johnny, no, no, no, ah, ah, oh"

Better go and run for cover

[VERSE FOUR]
G
And I don't wanna to talk about the trap, I've dreamed big
D
Real big since I've been on daddy's lap
A
Got my dreams by my side
A
Keep them in my pocket so that when I get the chance I can rip it out and rock it
G
It's like my golden ticket, it's the reason that I'm here
D
Everybody has a dream, they're frozen by fear
D A
We won't dance in the rain, we go and run for cover
A
All that is to blame is getting picked on by another
G
So we go and find someone that will love and support us
D
Says they adore us, maybe fought for us
A
Then, we forget about ambitions and decisions were changed
A
I think that I was only seven when, oh

You'll get picked on by another
Better go and run for cover, yeah

Johnny run away, run away now, Johnny now
A
You'll get picked on by another
Better go and run for cover

A
Getting picked on by another
Better go and run for cover
Nah, no, nah, no
