Intro: G,D,A play 2x
G              D                  A                             
 Well, she was precious like a flower 
         G     D               A  D/A  A
She grew wild, wild but innocent
G          D                       A
 A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
        G          D             A
She was everything beautiful and different
         G  D
Stupid boy 
A
you can't fence that in 
         G  D
Stupid boy
              A
it's like holding back the wind 
       G                  D               A     Asus4 A
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
            G               D                   A
and you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
          G               D
She never even knew she had a choice 
    Bm                  A
and that's what happens when the only voice 
G            D             A    Asus4 A
she hears is telling her she can't
         G  D   A
Stupid boy
         G  D   A
stupid boy
  G               D                           A
So, what made you think you could take a life
         G        D            A  Asus4 A D/A  A
and just push it, push it around?
G                 D               A
 I guess to build yourself up so high,
              G         D            A
you had to take her and break her down. oh.
            G                  D               A     Asus4 A
Well she laid her heart and soul right in your hands
            G               D                   A
and you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
          G               D
She never even knew she had a choice
    Bm                     A
and that's what happens when the only voice 
G            D             A
she hears is telling her she can't 
             G  Bm
You stupid boy
  A
oh, you always had to be right,
            G             D/F#
but now you lost the only thing that ever
A                 G  Bm  A
made you feel alive      oh
             G                  D                   A  Asus4 A
Well, she laid her heart and soul right in your hands
            G               D                   A 
and you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
          G               D
She never even knew she had a choice 
    Bm                  A
and that's what happens when 
             G              D             A
the only voice she hears is telling her she can't
             G  D
you stupid boy
            A                           G    D     A
oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy

G          D                           A
 It took a while for her to figure out
                                G
she could run, but when she did
    D    Asus4
she was  long gone, long gone
