[Verse]
A C
I wanted to be with you alone
A C
and talk about the weather
A C
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face
A C
Won't escape my attention
A C
You keep your distance with a system of touch
A C
and gentle persuasion
A C
I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much?
A C
Oh you're just wasting my time, you're just, just wasting time.
[Chorus]
G Em
Something happens and I'm head over heels
G Em
I never find out til I'm head over heels
G E m
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Dm
Ah, don't take my heart don't break my heart
Don't don't don't throw it away
A C
throw it away,
A C
throw it away!
[Verse 2]
A C
I made a fire, I'm watching it burn
A C
Yeah! Thought of your future
A C
With one foot in the past, now just how long will it last
A C
No, no, no have you no ambition (What's the matter with my)
A C
My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air
(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)
A C
and dreaming I'm a doctor
(Nothing gets done when you feel like a baby)
A C
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand
(Nothing ever changes when you're acting your age)
A C
Oh, I feel so - oh
[Ulangi Chorus]

This is my four-leaf clover

D C
(la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
In my minds's eye one little boy one little man
