Here's a great tune by the Violent Femmes :)
Intro
A D A D A D E
A D
I'm gnawing on the knowledge
A D
That I have been burnt
A D
And I'm learning things that I
A D
Should've already learnt
A D
Everyone I ever knew
A D
Was so kind and coy
A D
I was with a girl
A D
But it felt like I was with a boy
A
I can't even remember
D
If we were lovers
A E
Or if I just wanted to
A
But I held her in my arms
D
I held her in my arms
A
I held her in my arms
E
But it wasn't you
Repeat Intro
A D
I will not kill
A D
The one thing that I love
A D
In this world of wreckage
A D
I look above
A D
Help me Lord
A D
Help me understand
A D
What it means to be a boy
A D
What it means to be a man
