God so loved the idiot boy
F G C F C
He gave him a pair of eyes to explore
F G Am
Gave him a pair of hands to destroy
Dm7 G
Any good thing that he found
C F C F C
He said ”Put this kid in a candy store.
F G C F C
Let him run around until he drops"
F G Am
Then just like a bull in a china shop
Dm7 G
Everything came crashing down
F C G C
God so loved the idiot boy

E Am
That he filled the night with dreams
A Dm7
Til dusty sunlight beams
G
Danced upon the floor
E Am
Gave him a solo in the choir
A Dm7
Where songs of wild desire
G
Were all his voice was for
G
Lo lo lo lo lo lo
C F C
God so loved the idiot world
F G C F C
Give His his only son to kick around
F G Am
That was long ago in another town
Dm7 G
It could use a good laugh now
F C G C
God so loved the idiot world
Chorus
C F C F C
God so loved the idiot boy
F G C F C
He gave him coffee grounds in a paper cup
F G Am
And a reason everyday to keep getting up
Dm7 G
In a world that drags you down
F C G C
God so loved the idiot boy X3
