Standard (EADGBE)

I’m the son and the heir

 of a shyness that is criminally vulgar

I’m the son and heir

 of nothing in particular

You shut you mouth

How can you say

I go about the things the wrong way

 I’m human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does

repeat chorus and verse

There’s a club if you’d like to go

 You could meet somebody who really loves you

 So you go and you stand on your own

And you leave on your own

And you go home and you cry and you want to die

When you say it’s gonna happen now

When exactly do you mean

 See I’ve already waited too long

And all my hope is gone

  You shut you mouth

How can you say

I go about the things the wrong way

 I’m human and I need to be loved

Just like everybody else does
