Intro:  
Acoustic Guitar:  
G           D        A  


G             D                 A  
Well she was precious like a flower  
She grew wild, wild but innocent  
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour  
She was everything beautiful and different  
        G   D   A  
Stupid boy... you can't fence that in  
Stupid boy... it's like holdin' back the wind  


       G                D                   A  
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands  
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans  

           G             D  
She never even knew she had a choice  
           Bm              A            G  
And that's what happens when the only voice  
                D             A  
She hears is telling her she can't  
                G  D  A  
Stupid boy  
               G  D  A  
Stupid boy  


G                   D                     A  
So what makes you think you could take a life  
           G       D           A  
And just push it, push it around  
G            D                   A  
I guess to build yourself up so high  
             G             D       A  
You had to take her and break her down  
Well.....  


       G               D                   A  
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands  
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans  

           G              D  
She never even knew she had a choice  
           Bm             A              G  
And that's what happens when the only voice  
                D              A  
She hears is telling her she can't  

              G    D  
You stupid boy  
A  
You always had to be right  
             G               D               A  
And now you lost the only thing that ever made you feel alive  


(G   D    A) x2  


       G                D                  A  
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands  
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans  

            G               D  
She never even knew she had a choice  
           Bm             A             G  
And that's what happens when the only voice  
                     D         A  
She hears is telling her she can't  

                G D  
You stupid boy  
              A                         G  D A  
Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy  
G           D                       A  
It took a while for her to figure out she could run  
              G        D   A  
But when she did, she was long gone, long gone  (fade out)
