I found out by watching at the video on youtube (dickies unplugged) and im pretty
sure its right. At least it sounds like it.
Capo 5 fret
Intro: G Em Am C
G Em
God I am nothing but a boy in my room
Am C
But when I stand at the windowsill and I look at the moon
G Em
And I know something is rising to another dimension
Am C
Going out of my mind and way across the midwestern expanses
G Em Am
It dances out under the stars it's a prayer and it's there when I'm riding in cars
G Em
And when I'm listening to music, when I'm watching TV
Am C
I don't know how to say it, I get down on my knees, in my room
G Em Am C
In the evening, when no one's around, I turn on the radio and turn up the sound
CHORUS:
G Em Am
I say no, no don't fall through
Cm
I need you
G Em Am
Call me up right now
G
I'd call you but I don't know how
G Em Am C 1x
G Em
It started out when I was 10 years old
Am C G
I climbed into the driver's seat, the car started to roll down a hill
Em Am
And I fell deep in love with a lady who I hadn't yet met
C G
Oh but she made me her baby, right then found a pen
Em Am C
started writing a poem, and it's not done, I continue every time I'm alone
G Em
And I know that she's out there, and I know you can hear me
Am C G
How I'd love to be real, and I want you to be near me, but the radio's broken
Em Am C
The phone's out of service, and we've got no connection and it's making me nervous
CHORUS:
G Em Am Cm
I say no, no don't fall out
I call out
G Em Am
In this night's last hour
C
I'm feeling that mysterious power
G Em Am C 1x
ENDING:
G Em
God I am nothing but a boy in my room,
Am C
A boy in my room feeling that mysterious power
