Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I think you see me
The way that you'd like to see
A man that gets nothing done
I think you'd like me to be
As useless as I seem
And leave everything undone
[Chorus]
But the little boy I used to be
He had a conscience you could see
And he held it in his hand
He did not understand
That he would soon be me
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
I think you'd like to know
A place that I won't go
And spend some time
You say you need a friend
To take you by the hand
And sit awhile
[Chorus]
But the little boy I used to be
He had a conscience you could see
And he held it in his hand
He did not understand
That he would soon be me
[Bridge] * alternates between C and Cmaj7
C* G
If you could only feel this
It's nothing to believe
I ask an honest question
C*
I get a silent scream
When I hear the answer
It's nothing I could see
If someone could have warned you
It takes much more than me
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
But the little boy I used to be
He had a conscience you could see
And he held it in his hand
He did not understand
That he would soon be free
[Outro]
