[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][Dsus4][Dm][Dsus4][D][Dsus4][Dm]
[Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
A strange [Bm]boy is weaving
[Asus4]A course of grace and havoc[Gsus4][F]
On a [G]yellow [F]skateboard
Through [Gsus4]midday si[Dm]dewalk traf
[Dsus4]fic[D][Dsus4][D]
Just when I think he's fool
[Bm]ish and childish[D]
[Asus4]And I want him to be manly[Gsus4]
I catch my fool and my child
Needing [G]love [Dsus4]and under[D]
[Dsus4]standing

[Verse 2]
[Gsus4]
What a strange, [G]strange [Gsus4]boy
He still lives with his [G]fam[F]ily
[Fsus4]Even the [Eb]war and [Fsus4]the navy[F][Dm]
Couldn't bring him to ma[Dsus4]tur ity[C]
[Dsus4]

[Verse 3]
[D]He keeps referring
back to [Bm]school [D]days
[Asus4]And clinging to his ch[Am]ild[Gsus4]
[G]Fidgeting and bullied
[Gsus4]His crazy wisdom holding o[Dm]nto[D]
something [Dsus4]wild[Dm]
[D]He asked me to be pa [Bm]tient
Well I [Asus4]failed
"Grow up," [G]I c[Gsus4]ried
And as, the smoke [G]was clearing,
he said
"Give me one good reason [D]why"
[Dsus4][Dm]

[Verse 4]
[Gsus4]
What a strange, [G]strange boy
[F]He [Gsus4]sees the [F]cars
as sets [G]of [F]waves
[Fsus4]Sequences of mass and space[F][Dm]
He sees the damage in my [D]face[C][Dsus4]

[Verse 5]
[D]We got high on tra[Bm]vel[D]
[Asus4]And we got drunk on alco hol[Gsus4][G]
And on love, the strongest poison
and medicine of [D]all[Dm][Dsus4]
[D]See how that feeling
comes [Bm]and [D]goes
[Asus4]Like the pull of moon o[Am]n tides[Gsus4]
[G]Now I am surf rising
Now parched rib[Dm]s of sand at hi[D]s
[Dsus4]side
[Dm]

[Verse 6]
[Gsus4]
What a strange, [G]strange, boy
[F]I gave him clothes and [Gsus4]jewelry
[G]I g[F]ave[Fsus4] him my warm body[F][Dm]
I gave him power over [Dsus4]me

[Verse 7]
[D]A thousand glass eyes wer[Bm]e staring
[Asus4]In a cell[Am]ar full of antique d[F]olls
[G]I found an old piano
[F]And [Gsus4]sweet chords ros[Dm]e up in[Dsus4]
[D]waxed [Dm]New England [Dsus4]halls[Dm]
[D]While the boarders were snoring[Bm]
Un[D]der [Asus4]crisp white
sheets of [G]curfew
We were newly lovers then
We were [Gsus4]fire in t[F]he [Dm]stiff, blue-haired house house rule[D]s
