[Verse 3]
She said it was the wrong thing
For me to do
I said it's just a boys' game
That girls play too
My heart is working overtime
In this kind of game
People get hurt
I'm thinkin that the people is me
If you want to find me, I'll be...

-[Chorus 2]-

DI (xx0232@1)don't want to be the moth around your fire
...with the boys

Bb (x1333x@1)            DI've (xx0232@1)seen enough
...with the boys
GI'm (320003@1)staying here
A (x02220@1)               Bh
You play too rough

[Last Chorus]
Playing, playing with the boys
I'll be staying, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
One of life's simple joys
Is playing with the boys
Playing with the boys
Playing
Playing
Playing
Playing......
