[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/john_mellencamp/jena_crd.html ]
So what becomes of boys that cannot think straight
Particularly those with paper bag skin
Yes sir no sir we'll wipe that smile right off your face
We’ve got our rules here and you must fit in



 Chorus

Some day, some way sanity will prevail
But who knows when that day will come
A shot in the dark, well just might find its way
To the hearts of those that hold the keys to kingdom come

 Take your nooses down

 Take those nooses off now.
