When I was just a boy I’d be kicking a tin
                    D9                     A7
Take the short cut home through the loony bin
                    A7                      A7
I never gave much thought to the souls in there
              Esus4             A7
I was just a boy, too young to care


                   A7                A7
Well the years go by and you get to see
                   D9           A7
A dream’s not the same as reality
                  A7                       A7
Well a dream or two is going to crash and burn
                Esus4                 A7    A7
And that’s the way that you live and learn

                      A7                   A7
Well it was late one night and I woke at two
                  D9                  A7
And I lay there thinking the way you do
            A7                     A7
But it’s a long dark night of the soul
             Esus4                      A7
When those thoughts are turning sad and old


             A7                  A7
And then outside on the empty street
             D9               A7
I heard the sound of walking feet
                    A7            A7
Well it was just a boy away from home
                        Esus4                    A7
And he was singing the song ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’
