[intro]
|Dm   Dm/C|C/D     |F/D      |G/D     |

Dm                         |C/D                |
  Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals
F/D                    |G/D       |
  I get my back into my living
Dm                        |C/D              |
  I don't need to fight to prove I'm right
F/D                        |G/D       |
  And I don't need to be forgiven

Dm        C/D              |F          |
  My kids ain't gonna break my heart
G          Fadd9            |Eb           Eb/D|
  My greed ain't gonna spoil their part
C           F                   |Bb   Bb(A)  Bb(G)  Bb(F)|
  This life just has to be a new one
Eb                          |Asus4      A     |
  I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun

Dm              |C/D            
Don't cry, don't raise your eye
    |Bb/D  |Am Am       |Dm 
It's only        teenage wasteland

[repeat intro]

Don't have the latest suit, the long grass is my fruit
I am really ordinary man
The family is free to do just as they please
And we all sleep together in the caravan

Hey you, don't walk on the turnips
My lord, when will they ever learn it, ooh
Look there, nations of travelling children
Nowhere to go to escape the chill wind

Dm              |C/D            
Don't cry, don't raise your eye
    |Bb/D |Am Am        |D     D   |
It's only        teenage wasteland

|A  G  |D   D     |A   G  |D   D  |A   G  |D  D  |A   G   |

D          Dm                  |F         |
   My kids ain't gonna break my heart
G            Fadd9            |Eb           Eb/D|
And my greed ain't gonna spoil their part
C         F                   |Bb   Bb(A)  Bb(G)  Bb(F)|
This life just has to be a new one
Eb                          |Asus4      |A     |
  I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun

||:D   A|G    D:||x4

||:E   B|A  :||x2

E             B |A    (B)|
  Sally, take my hand
E              B    |A    (B)|
  Travel south cross land
E               B|A                   (B)|E      B   |A  (B)|
Put out the fire   and don't look past my shoulder

The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get home before we get older

       |E       B |A    (B)|
Teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland

           |B    B   |A   A   |
They're all wasted!
