Intro:

C#m  -  G#m  -  F#m  -  G#m  -  C#m  - G#m  -  F#m  -  G#m  -  F#m  -  G#m

E  -  A  -  F#m  -  G#m  -  E  -  A  -  F#m  -  Am  -  E



[C#m]Ooooooh [G#m]ooooh [F#m]ooooooh  
[G#m]What’s the matter with the boy?
[C#m]Ooooooh [G#m]ooooh [F#m]ooooooh 
[G#m]Did he really have to be so sure? [F#m]


But you’re not [G#m]thinking
[E]Ride around without a sound
[A]Restless boy in a restless town
[F#m]And you commence to [G#m]drinking
[E]A bottle up, a bottle down, 
[A] A bottle white, a bottle brown
[F#m]Another day [Am]peels away


Ooooooh ooooh ooooooh oooh (what’s the matter with the boy?)
Ooooooh ooooh ooooooh oooh (don’t you want another try?)


Part of the process is sifting through piles of shit
Tell us you don’t mind a bit from a different angle such
Power rarely deviates, in times of love, in times of hate
Another spring will come


Bridge:
[A]Faithful friends all [E]around you 
[A]You wonder why you feel so [B]low
[A]Look at me if you [E]really want to see
[F#m]The comedy [Am]and the [E]clown


Ooooooh ooooh ooooooh oooh (what’s the matter with the boy?)
Ooooooh ooooh ooooooh oooh (has he really given up for sure?)


Here’s a new solution
Be square and kind to all your friends
Stop staring through the bitter lens
Ancient institution 
This learning not to demonstrate
Your asinine and callous traits
It could take some practice, I know
