Verse 1:
G Am    D                         Am7
    The boy with the thorn in his side
           C           D     
Behind the hatred there      lies
  G           Am  D   Am7    C D     
a murderous desire for   love
             G        Am       D
How can they look into  my eyes
                       Am7
And still they don't believe me?
C D                  G          Am           D
        How can they hear me say  those words
                   Am7
Still they don't believe me?
C    D                  G       Am   D
 And if    they don't believe me  now
            Am7           C
Will they ever believe me?
    D                  G       Am
And if    they don't believe me  now
D                          Am7
 Will they ever, they ever,   believe me?
C  D     
 Oh

Behind the hatred there      lies
