3 chords - C  Am  F



            C                    AmThere was a guy at my school when I was in high school
     F                        C We'd ride side by side in the morning on our bicycles 
C                    AmNever even spoken or faced each other 
           F              CBut on the last hill we'd race each other 


        C                           AmWhen we reached the racks we'd each go our own way 
  F                        CI wasn't in his classes, I didn't know his name 
        C                            AmWhen we finally got to speak he just stared at his feet 
    F                      CAnd mumbled a sentence that ended with 'James' 


C               AmI was young and caught in the crowd 
F                       CI didn't know then what I know now 
C               Am                  F    CI was dumb, and I was proud and I'm sorry 
C                  AmIf I could go back do it again 
F              CI'd be someone you could call friend 
C          Am                  F    CPlease please believe that I'm sorry 


            C                      AmWell he was quite a big guy, kinda shy and quiet 
         F                               CWhen the kids called him weird he didn't try to deny it 
      C                    AmEvery lunchtime he'd spend walking by himself 
          F                              CRound the boundary of the grounds til he heard the bell 


     C                    AmWell one day I found him, joined him on his walk 
        F                          CWe were silent for a while until we started to talk 
   C                      AmI told him my family were fighting in court 
   F                    CHe said his step-dad and him always fought 


   C                   AmWe talked about music, he was into punk 
F                            CTold me all the bands that I liked were junk 
  C                        AmI said I'd never heard the songs the sex pistols sang 
  F                       CI laughed back at him and then the bell rang 


C               AmI was young and caught in the crowd 
F                       CI didn't know then what I know now 
C               Am                  F    CI was dumb, and I was proud and I'm sorry 
C                  AmIf I could go back do it again 
F              CI'd be someone you could call friend 
C          Am                  F    CPlease please believe that I'm sorry


       c                   AmIt was after school in the afternoon 
    F                            CThe corridors were crowded as we came out of the rooms 
     C                       AmThree guys I knew pushed him into the cement 
  F                      CThrew away his bag and said he had no friends 

    C                        AmHe yelled that he did and he looked around 
F                         CTried getting up but they pushed him on down 
C                      Am           F      CThat's when he saw me, called out my name 

      C             Am         F      CAnd I turned my back, and just walked away
      C             Am         F      CYeah I turned my back, and just walked away 



C               AmI was young and caught in the crowd 
F                       CI didn't know then what I know now 
C               Am                  F    CI was dumb, and I was proud and I'm sorry 
C                  AmIf I could go back do it again 
F              CI'd be someone you could call friend 
C          Am                  F    CPlease please believe that I'm sorry 
C          Am                   F    CPlease, please believe that I’m sorry
