Chorus:
               C#
And if there's one thing that
                       B
I learned when I was still a child
               F#          B
It's to take a hiding, yeah

I don't love anything
Not even Christmas
Especially not that
I don't love anything

I don't love anyone
Well, maybe my sister
Maybe my baby brother too, yeah
I don't love anyone

Chorus:
If there's one thing that
I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding, yeah
If there's one thing that
I learned when I was still a child
It's to be alone

If there's one thing that
I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding, yeah

Out in the street today
The kids are out playing, having fun
Well, I pass them by, I'm not a kid, no
I don't love anyone

I met a man today
And he told me something pretty strange
There's always somebody saying something
He said "The world is as soft as lace"
But I don't love anyone

                  B
But I don't love anyone
                 E
I don't love anyone
                C#m
I don't love anyone
                C#
I don't love anyone - x2

Chorus:
If there's one thing that
I learned when I was still a child
It's to take a hiding
