I have paid all my dues
      Em
so I picked up my shoes
    C       G        C
I got up and walked away

 C           F
for I was just a boy
     C  G  C (fast)
I didn't know how to pay

I worked hard and failed
now all I can say is
I threw it all away

I was just a boy
giving it all away

      sail away, sail away

       F                    C
      Ohh, and I know better now
             Bb                     F
      I know better now, giving it all away

      Ohh, and I know better now
      I know better now, giving it all away
      (just a boy, giving it all away)

When out in the world
to much for my nerves
only myself to blame

I was just a boy
nobody else to blame

I have done all I can
now it is out of my hands
stand on my head and say

I was just a boy
giving it all away
