When I was, a boy of ten

I had a very best friend

Fred was kind, with good intent

  just a little different



   A     Asus2           Bm
oh Special Fred
       E
Mama dropped him 
A   Asus2        Bm
on his head
        E
Now he’s not so 
A       Asus2         Bm
bright, instead
        E           A   Bm  
He's a little bit special
       E
He's a little bit



A         Asus2     A        Asus2
We'd play tag, and he'd get hurt
A         Asus2     A        Asus2
I played soldiers, He'd eat dirt
A         Asus2     A        Asus2

Mama dropped him 
A   Asus2        Bm
on his head
        E
