and those lies through your teeth that i fell through
Em C Em C
and closing the doors never helped me close up the room

on the hotel halls and all the bathroom stalls

Em C
and you came to one of my shows
Em C
i saw your face from the candle light glow
Em C G
and my fingers forgot where to push in the knots of the wood
Em C Em C
and closing the doors never helped me close up the room
Em C
now im hosting the gathering
Em C G
when all the men will be boys and the girls sing the chorus again again
Em C Em C
and closing the doors never helped me close up the room

Em C G
when all the men will be boys and the girls sing the chorus again

and holding your hand never helped me forget the truth

and all the men will grow up
C G
and the girls start to see a new day
Em
and all the men will grow up
C G
and the girls start to see a new day

but all the men will be boys
C G
and the girls sing the chorus again
