[Versetto]
G             D                 A 
Well she was precious like a flower 
           G   D             A 
She grew wild, wild but innocent 
G           D                    A 
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour 
         G          D             A 
She was everything beautiful and different 
        G   D  A 
Stupid boy... you can't fence that in 
        G   D            A 
Stupid boy... it's like holdin' back the wind
[Ritornello]
       G                D                   A 
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands 
         G                D                   A 
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans 
           G             D 
She never even knew she had a choice 
     Bm                   A            G 
And that's what happens when the only voice 
              D           A 
She hears is telling her she can't 
        G  D  A 
Stupid boy 
        G  D  A 
Stupid boy
[Versetto]
G                   D                     A 
So what makes you think you could take a life 
           G       D       A 
And just push it, push it around 
G                   D             A 
I guess to build yourself up so high 
            G             D         A 
You had to take her and break her down 
 
Well.....
[Ritornello]
       G                D                   A 
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands 
         G                D                   A 
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans 
           G             D 
She never even knew she had a choice 
     Bm                   A            G 
And that's what happens when the only voice 
              D           A 
She hears is telling her she can't
[Ponte]
            G    Bm 
You stupid boy 
A 
You always had to be right 
             G               D             A 
And now you lost the only thing that ever made you feel alive
[Solo]

[Ritornello]
       G                D                   A 
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands 
         G                D                   A 
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans 
           G             D 
She never even knew she had a choice 
     Bm                   A            G 
And that's what happens when the only voice 
              D           A 
She hears is telling her she can't
[Versetto]
                G D 
You stupid boy 
              A                         G  D A 
Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy 
G           D                       A 
It took a while for her to figure out she could run 
              G        D   A 
But when she did, she was long gone, long gone  (fade out)
