What a good boy Barenaked Ladies

Lyrics and guitar chords

  • Guitar chords floem
GWhen I was born,D they looked at me and said C 

What a good boy, what a smart boy, what a strong boy
GAnd when you werDe born, they looked at you aCnd said

What a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl

GWe've got these Dchains that hang around our Cnecks

People want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath
GAfraid of changeD, afraid of staying the sameC 

When temptation calls, we just look away

     ThiGs name is the Dhairshirt I wear

     AndC this hairshirt is woven from your brown hair
     ThiGs song is the Dcross that I bear
     BeaCr it with me, bear with me, bear with me
     Be with me tonightG  D  C  C9   G 
     I know that it isn't rigGhtD  C  C9   G 

But be with me tonight

GI go to school, DI write exams C 

If I pass, If I fail, If I drop out, does anyone give a damn?
GAnd if they do, Dthey'll soon forgetC 

'Cause it won't take much for me to show that my life ain't over yet

GI wake up scaredD, I wake up strangCe

I wake up wondering if anything in my life is ever gonna change
GI wake up scaredD, I wake up strange C 

And everything around me stays the same

GI couldn't tell Dyou, that I was wronCg

Chickened out, grabbed a pen and paper, sat down and I wrote this song
GI couldn't tell Dyou, you were right C 

So instead I looked in the mirror, watched TV, layed awake all night

GWe've got these Dchains that hang around our Cnecks

Perople want to strangle us with them before we take our first breath
GAfraid of changeD, afraid of staying the sameC 

When temptation calls . . .
