[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Michael's bones

Lay where he fell

Face down on a sports ground

Bm Em

He was just somebody's luckless son

Oh, but now look what he's done

Oh, look what he's done

[Chorus]

C Bm

Your gentle hands are frozen

C Bm

And your unkissed lips are blue

C Bm

Your thinning clothes are hopeless

C Bm A

And no one was mad about you

[Verse 2]

Bm Em

Hmmm Michael's bones

Were very young

But they were never to know

Bm Em

Impetuous fun

Mr. Policeman

I don't know where you get such notions from

[Chorus]

C Bm

His gentle hands are frozen

C Bm

And his unkissed lips are blue

C Bm A

But his eyes still cry

[Verse 3]

Bm Em

And now you've turned the last bend

And see - are we all judged the same at the end?

Bm G

Tell me, tell me

Oh, you lucky thing

You are too brave

And I'm ashamed of myself, as usual
