         F# 
I am the son and the heir 
     A               B          F# 
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar 
I am the son and heir 
                        A B 
Of nothing in particular 

D             A 
You shut your mouth, how can you say 
C#m E                 F# 
I go about things the wrong way ? 
     D                      A 
I am Human and I need to be loved 
C#m       E             |F#|F#|F#|A/B/| 
Just like everybody else does 

         F# 
I am the son and the heir 
     A               B          F# 
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar 
I am the son and heir 
                            A B 
Oh, of nothing in particular 

D             A 
You shut your mouth 

D             A 
You shut your mouth, how can you say 
C#m E                 F# 
I go about things the wrong way ? 
     D                      A 
I am Human and I need to be loved 
C#m       E             |F#|F#|F#|A/B/| 
Just like everybody else does 

D                               A 
There's a club if you'd like to go 
               C#m      E          F# 
You could meet somebody who really loves you 
       D 
So you go, and you stand on your own 
A 
And you leave on your own 
        C#m              E 
And you go home, and you cry 
                |F#|F#|F#|A/B/| 
And you want to die 

D                              A 
When you say it's gonna happen "now" 
C#m          E            F# 
Well, when exactly do you mean? 
         D                  A 
See I've already waited too long 
C#m E           F# 
And all my hope is gone 

D             A 
You shut your mouth, how can you say 
C#m E                 F# 
I go about things the wrong way ? 
     D                      A 
I am Human and I need to be loved 
C#m       E             |F#|F#|F#|A/B/| 
Just like everybody else does
