Boy Chords

   
One of Reuben's most beautiful and underrated songs. If you want to play it
along with the track, tune down a semitone. It sounds alright to me but any
comments and corrections are welcomed.

B   Bmaj7  F#    E
Oh, I am   tired out

C#m         E    F#sus4  F#
By life, it drags me down

B             Bmaj7             F#       E
And all these thoughts that I'm swimming in

C#m         E       F#sus4   F#
I feel like I could drown


     C#m                      F#
'Cos everything is moving too fast for me to see

And these assholes try to make me something I don't want to be

        C#m                                 F#7
And the best news I can hear all day is for you to say to me


B            G#m           C#m         F#
"Boy, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

B           G#m            C#m         F#
Boy, it's alright, you'll be with me tonight"

G   A    E
Tonight

Tonight


** Same chord progressions as above **


Wait, don't move, you are beautiful
And I know that you always will be
And oh, your eyes are open now
And I've never felt more proud than when
the both of them are focussed on me

But everything is moving way too fast for me to see
And these assholes, they try to make me something that I could never be
And the best news I can hear all day is for you to say to me

Say "Boy, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Boy, it's alright, you'll be with me tonight
Boy, it's alright, you're my life, you're my light
Boy, it's alright, I will dream of you tonight"
