  CSee Boy DStrange on the horGm7izon of A7love
He's Dmcalling Bbto you   Fwhat do you sGay
  CSee Boy DStrange as an exaGm7mple of A7youth
So Dmclose to the Bbtruth    Fbut still far Gaway

  AbThat you left beGhindG6  
[Verse 2]
CWhen you realDise that this   Gm7boy is A7strange
It's Dmtoo late to Bbchange   Fyour point of Gview
  CHe's often Dthere when Gm7the sun meets the A7sky
With a Dmperfect aliBbbi     Funlike Gyou
