Intro:  C  D  G

      D               Am
The boy with the thorn in his side,
                  C       D
Behind the hatred there lies
   G                          D          Am    C   D
A murderous desire        for love
                        G                D
How can they look into my eyes
                                Am           C   D
And still they don't believe me?
                        G                            D
How can they hear me say those words
                            Am           C   D
Still they don't believe me?
                           G                D
And if they don't believe me now,
                 Am                   C       D
Will they ever believe me?
                            G               D
And if they don't believe me now,
                                Am
Will they ever, they ever, believe me?

Oh ...  oh     oh     oh

     D               Am
The boy with the thorn in his side,
                     C               D
behind the hatred there lies
   G                          D          Am    C   D
A plundering desire          for love
                        G                            D
How can they see the Love in our eyes
                                Am           C
And still they don't believe us?
                D            G
And after all this time
     Am                             C
(they don't want to believe us)
        D                    G             D
And if they don't believe us now,
               Am               C
Will they ever believe us?
       D                           G
And when you want to live,
                         D
How do you start, where do you go,
 Am                              C       D
Who do you need to know?

C   D    C    D    C    D   C  C7M   D   G
Oh ...  oh     oh     oh
