[Verse 1]
[Em]He tries so [A]hard to [Am]get himself to[Em]gether
But he's so [A]weak he
[Am]couldn't lift a [Em]feather
And it looks as [A]though it's
[Am]gonna be [Em]bad weather
[D]When he comes [A]down
from [D]the [Em]clouds
[Esus4][D][Esus4]

[Verse 2]
[Em]His mother says,
[A]I wis[Am]h he'd should stop his drinking[Em]
He's like [A]a ship that's
[Am]on the verge of si[Em]nking
But she don't [A]see his [Am]pupils
as they're shrink[Em]ing
[D]When he's [A]away in the [D]cloud[Em] s

[Verse 3]
[D]He's just a boy with a problem
he can't con[Em]ceal
[D]He thinks he's controlling his habit
But soon from this [Em]earth

[Interlude 1]
He will leave
[A][Em][A][Am][Em]

[Verse 4]
He [Em]used to [A]be a [Am]very happy [Em]fellow
And [A]everything [Am]he did was very [Em]mellow
But now his [A]skin [Am]is slowly
[Em]turning yellow
[D]Looking [Bm]just [A]like a bad [F#m]dream
[Em]

[Verse 5]
He used [A]to play [Am]a melody so [Em]pretty
On a silver [A]stick a long
way [Am]from the [Em]city
But now my [Am]heart is so filled up with [Em]pity
[D]What can we [A]do with him now
[Em]

[Verse 6]
[D]He's just a boy with a problem
he can't [Em]con ceal
[D]He thinks he's controlling his habit
But soon from this [Em]earth

[Interlude 2]
He will leave
[A][Em][A][Em][A]
[Em]
[A][Em][D][A][F#m][Em]

[Verse 7]
I'm [Em]gonna [A]write [Am]a song
and send it [Em]to him
And maybe [A]he [Am]will see just
what I'm [Em]feelin'
I've still got [A]love and [Am]hope
and my affec[Em]tion
To [D]keep him from [A]fading[G]
[D]away
[Em][Esus4][Em]

[Verse 8]
The earth is [A]pure,
its vein[Am]s are rivers of [Em]water
And [A]man should be as
[Am]a father to [Em]a daughter
But he does what he likes,
[A]because he [Am]thinks he's[Em] bought her
[D]Laughing while [Bm]he in
[A]jects her with [F#m]his filth
[Em]

[Verse 9]
[D]He's just a boy with a problem,
lost out in [Em]space
We're [D]turning him into a junkie,
look at his [Em]face
What a [A]disgrace
