   C        Dm           F
He tried to erase him by 24
        C            Dm           F
Because now he can't walk out the door
     C            Dm            F
They all think he lied, but the lord knows he tried
      C                   Dm         F
To be something that they all would adore
     C            Dm
They hate what he is
         F
And they hate what he's not
    C               Dm           F
But hate is nothing new you will see
         C            Dm
From the grave to the cot
      F
How I wish that I forgot
         C          Dm             F
That the boy in the black dress is me
