The boy with the thorn in his side

Behind the hatred there lies

For love

How can they look into my eyes
Am C D
And still they don’t believe me?
D G Am D
How can they hear me say those words
D Am C
Still they don’t believe me?

And if they don’t believe me now

Will they ever, they ever believe me?
