Standard (EADGBE)

(Piano Intro)

That's my boy

American son

Hope I'm not around

When he gets the idea

To buy a gun.

That's our boy

America's gone

Hope I'm not to blame

When he gets the idea

To kill someone.

(Electric-Guitar comes in with the same chords of acoustic part)

How do you ever really love someone?

How do you ever really love someone?

The flag's been broken

By an enemy

Raised on MTV

Raised on you and me

(Electric-Guitar part)

How do you ever really love someone?

How do you ever really love someone?

Gone, yeah, he's gone

And I have known nothing about you

Yeah, he's gone

And he's never coming back.

Where's our saviour?

I'm looking for a sign

Just need something to clean

The blood from my numb, weary mind

How do you ever really love someone?

How do you ever really love someone?
