Intro
(Stole)
Oh
(Stole)
Verse chords
He was always such a nice boy
The quiet one
With good in-tentions
He was down for his brother
Re-spectful to his mother
A good boy
But good don't get attention
One kid with a promise
The brightest kid in school
He's not a fool
Reading books about science and smart stuff
It's not enough, no
Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa
Bridge chords
He's not invisible a-nymore
With his Father's 9 and a broken fuse
Since he walked through that class-room door
He's all over primetime news
Key change to Bb
Chorus chords
Mary's got the same size hands
As Marilyn Monroe
She put her fingers in the imprints
At Mann's Chinese Theatre show
She coulda been a movie star
Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole, oh, oh
Now we'll never know
Back to C
No no no no oh-oh
Verse chords
They were crying to the camera
Said he never fitted in
He wasn't welcomed
He showed up to the parties
He was hanging in
Some guys puttin' him down
Bullying him round (round)
Now I wish I woulda talked to him
Gave him the time of day
Not turn away
If I woulda been the one to maybe go this far
He might have stayed at home
Playing angry chords on his guitar
Bridge chords
He's not invisible anymore
With his baggy pants and his legs in chains
Since he walked through that classroom door
Everybody knows his name
Key change to Bb
Chorus chords
Mary's got the same size hands (Oh)
As Marilyn Monroe
She put her fingers in the imprints (Ooh)
at Mann's Chinese Theatre show
She coulda been a movie star
Never got the chance to go that far
Her life was stole
Now we'll never know
(Now we'll never know, oh)
Greg was always getting net from twenty feet away (20 feet away)
He had a tryout with the Sixers
Couldn't wait for Saturday (Saturday)
Now we're never gonna see him slam
Flying high as Kobe can
His life was stole (Stole)
Oh now we'll never know
Now we'll never never never know
Middle chords

Oh whoa yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
