   G
He looks at me in wonder

Csus2
 Looks at me in fear

G
 Wrestling with his anger

    Csus2
His pride and stony tears

   Fadd9
To place me in his life

Csus2
Will be hard and slow

        G
Does he want it, need it?

Csus2         Dsus4    Csus2
I might never know
[Chorus]
              G
The boy feels strange

Dsus4        Csus2
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

            G      Csus2
The boy has changed
[Verse 2]
G
 Looking from my tower

      Csus2
I can see his fortress strong

G
 Surrounded by his army

Csus2
 Where do I belong?

        Fadd9
Does he ever find the answers

       Csus2
In the cars as they go by?

        G            Csus2  Dsus4    Csus2
Does he ever want to ask me why?
[Chorus]
              G
The boy feels strange

Dsus4        Csus2
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

        G
Boy has changed
[Bridge]
         D
And he's seen with all the women

    D
Who think that he's a god

       Csus2
And he blesses whom he pleases

        Csus2
Holding fast to the facade

                D
I want to reach out and believe him

            D
Through his miles and miles of pain

    Csus2
But lately when I touch him

Csus2            G      Csus2      G      Csus2
Boy, that feels strange
[Verse 3]
G
 And he speaks to me of business

       Csus2
When I ask him how he's been

G
 Keeps me at a distance

Csus2
 Never getting under skin

       Fadd9
Can he make a new beginning?

        Csus2
Does he even want to try?

   G            Csus2  Dsus4    Csus2
Or will he only let it die?
[Chorus]
              G
The boy feels strange

Dsus4        Csus2
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

            G
The boy has changed
[Outro] | Dsus4 | Csus2 | G |
Dsus4    Csus2    G
Mmh...

Dsus4    Csus2    G
Mmh...

Dsus4        Csus2    G
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Dsus4        Csus2    G
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
