D
The boy done wrong again
           A                  G             D
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
D
The boy done wrong again
           A                  G             F#m
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
        A       G
Are you ok now?

On Saturday I was an angel shining fair
You shone louder, longer
You put my shine to shame
Put me to shame now

What is it I must do to pay for all my crimes?
What is it I must do?
I would do it all the time
Do it all the time, now

G           Bm            F#m              Em
All that I wanted was to sing the saddest songs
        F#m             Em             G
And if you would sing along I will be happy now

D               A                G
The woodland spring has put the darkness
            D
from your thinking
         G           F#m
If this town's your shinking ship
                A
Then you know where to jump

Talking dirty for a hobby that's alright
Pour another glass of wine
I'll think of England this time

G      Bm            F#m              Em
All I wanted was to sing the saddest songs
        F#m            Em
And if you would sing along
        F#m             Em
Oh, if you would sing along
         F#m         Em
If you'd only sing along
                 D
I will be happier
