The boy with the thorn in his side
C D
Behind the hatered there lies
G D
A murderous desire
Am7 C D
For love
G D
How can they look into my eyes
Am7 C D
And still they don't believe me
G D
How can they hear me say those words
Am7 C D
Still they don't believe me
D G D
And if they don't believe me now
Am7 C D
Will they ever believe me?
D G D
And if they don't believe me now
Am7
Will they ever believe me?

The boy with the thorn in his side

Behind the hatered there lies

A plundering desire
Am7 C D
For love

How can they see the love in our eyes
Am7
And still they don't believe us
C D G
And after all this time

They don't want to believe us

And if they don't believe us now
Will they ever believe us?
And when you want to live
How do you start?
Where do you go?
Who do you need to know?
