                    Daniel,  do you     remember?

Am Asus2  Am Asus2    Am Asus2    G
          You were in such a    state

         F    F    F  Em   Dm   C
The boys that wait outside your house

              Dm
Have got your number

              G       F      C  Cmaj7 C7
And are not afraid to use it
[Verse 2]
Dm                 Am
  They'll probably give it out

   Dm              Am          C   C6 C
To anyone they see,  including me

F                  Em            Dm
  They'll probably make up your mind

          C            G
As if you want them to
[Chorus]
    F
Oh, you

      G         Am            C
Those boys tell you what to do

           Dm    Dm C  Dm C
All of the time

G            F
Oh, later on

         G       Am             C
You said I could be just what I want

                     Dm    Dm C  Dm C
And they said you're lying

              G             F
Well you were born to be an astronaut

And you'll do that or die trying

G           F               Am
  What a way to live and die

                G            F
And you wonder why boys will cry

             C                 Dm                  G       F
Boys will be boys, they should listen, do as their mothers tell them.

   If you know what's good for you

Dm           Am                C   C6  C
Behave yourself this time, for me

  If you know what's good for you

Don't lay around complaining all day

They're not crying

G          F
Oh, later on

         G       Am             C
You said I could be just what I want

                     Dm    Dm C  Dm C
And they said you're lying

              G             F
Well you were born to be an astronaut

           C              Dm
And you'll do that or die trying

  There'll be nothing wrong with it----, I---
