Capo on the 3rd fret. Use all downstrokes. Strum only low strings on
the beat and the full chord on the offbeat. On "Men will be boys..." strum
evenly, then return to the regular pattern on "again".
Listen to a recording for help. Enjoy!!!

Intro: G
[G]Ive been waiting for[Cadd9] you, my dear
[G]Ive been waiting for[Cadd9] you
over [G]valleys and mountains
it [Cadd9]helps to keep counting[G] the days
and l[G]ast night felt kind of st[Cadd9]range, my dear
[G]last night felt kind of s[Cadd9]trange
all those [G]blankets and sheets
and tho[Cadd9]se lies through your teeth that i fell[G] throu[Cadd9]gh
and [Em]closing the [C]doors never [Em]helped me close up the [C]room
now im [Em]hosting the [C]gathering
when all the [Em]men will be boys
and the [C]girls sing the chorus [G]again
and [G]ive been writing your[Cadd9] name, sweet pea
[G]Ive been writing your [Cadd9]name
on the [G]hotel halls and all the [Cadd9]bathroom stalls
its for [G]you
and you c[Em]ame to one of my[C] shows
i saw your [Em]face from the candle light [C]glow
and my [Em]fingers forgot where to [C]push in the knots of the [G]wood
and [Em]closing the d[C]oors never he[Em]lped me close up the room[C]
now im [Em]hosting the ga[C]thering
when all the [Em]men will be boys and the g[C]irls sing the chorus ag[G]ain, again
(Strum Once)
and c[Em]losing the do[C]ors never he[Em]lped me close up the r[C]oom
now im [Em]hosting the [C]gathering
when all the [Em]men will be boys and the g[C]irls sing the chorus [G]again.
and [Em]holding your h[C]and never h[Em]elped me forget the [C]truth.
now im [Em]hoping your r[C]ight this time,
(and all the [Em]men will grow up
and the [C]girls start to see a new [G]day ) x2
but all the [Em]men will be boys
and the [C]girls sing the chorus a[G]gain.
End on G
