  I was scared of pretty girls
      C#
and starting conversations,
A#m        G#       
  Oh all my friends
             C#
are turning green,
A#m                   G#

sing the words wrong

         C#
job and heads to New York City,
     A#m       G#

         C#
from himself.
    A#m                
  And she's been living
