Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: D
[Intro]
D G/B D G/B
[Verse]
D G/B D G/B D
I went to high school with that kid
G/B D
He was even strange back then
G/B
The type whose eyes don't leave the floor
D
Blend in with the cement
[Verse]
D G/B D G/B D
I felt so bad for that kid
G/B D
One day I saw his face turn green
G
And as he tumbled to the floor
D G/B
The thought of reaching out never occurred to me
[Chorus]
Bm D Bm
Why don't we open up
D Bm
Knowing that we all falter?
Em D/F# G
When will we learn
D G/B D G/B
To reach out for each other?
[Verse]
D G/B D G/B D
He lived out on the edge of town
G/B D D/F#
And I'm pretty sure he had a brother
G
It seemed that boy could walk for days
D G/B D
I suspect to avoid his mother
[Verse]
G/B D G/B
And I always knew he had it bad
D G/B D D/F#
Tougher than any of us others did
G
Still, I never asked him how he was doing
D G/B D
What could I do? I was just a kid
[Chorus]
Bm D Bm
Why don't we open up
D Bm
Knowing that we all falter?
Em D/F# G
When will we learn
D G/B D G/B
To reach out for each other?
[Verse]
D G/B D G/B
So, now he's the new town bum
D G/B D D/F#
He talks to himself and picks up cans all day
G
And when my kids ask me about him
D G/B D
What'll I say? What'll I say?
[Outro]
Bm D Bm
Why don't we open up
D Bm
Knowing that we, we all falter?
Em
And when will we learn?
D/F# G D Bm
When will we learn to open up
D Bm
Knowing that we all falter?
Em
When will we learn? (When will we learn?)
D/F# G Em
I said, when will we learn?
D/F# G
When will we learn
