Riff 1
A mother said, "Beware of boys in bands
And certainly don't let them write you songs
Riff 1
For they will come to you on bended knee and kiss your pretty hands
When the singing's done, and the suns up they'll be gone."
Em D G C
While her mother has a point, I might resent the implication.
Em D C G
That every boy who plays guitar plays women like Gene Simmons.
Riff 1
4600 photographs, stuck into a scrapbook beneath your bed.
Riff 1
4599 broken hearts, and one more you can't get out of your head.
Em D G C
And though you swear you can remember every pair of lips you've kissed
Em D C G
Deep down you're scared there's 1 or 2 you might've missed.

G1 D1 C1 G1
Oh, Oh Chaim Witz,
Em1 C1 D1 G1
where fore art though?
G1 D1 C1 G1
Does your mother
Em1 C1 D1 G1 D7/C
know who you are now?
Em D G C
Not that I can point a finger, I've been a sinner just the same
Em D C G
Fallen hard in love in motels and by sunrise lost their name.
Em D G C
And I have crept out into cold air in the smallest hours to leave
Em D C G
And in the pockets of my jacket I've kept my last fidelities
Gb1
A navy coin and a broken plastic compass that someone gave me.
G#1 G
That can't find north anymore. Just like me.
G1 D1 C1 G1
Oh, Gene Simmons,
Em1 C1 D1 G1
wherefore art though?
G1 D1 C1 G1
I could sure use
Em1 C1 D1 G1 D7/C
a hand on my shoulder now.
Em D G C
when fidelity runs low that there's the moment when you choose
Em D C G
In the life of things you love, some you keep, some you lose.
