Tom: Dm

Dm C F Bb

Dm  C
Ooh ooh
F   Bb
Ooh Ooh

[Chorus]
         Dm              C
He's the boy who’s never crossed your mind
       F                           Bb
You'll never see him laugh, you'll never see him smile ‘cause
Dm              C             F   Bb
    He lost his youth so long ago
         Dm                    C
He’s the boy who's always sat alone
   F                          Bb
He never learned to dance, he never learned to love so
Dm             C                F    Bb
   You'll only notice when he's gone

[Verse 1]
         Dm
He looks up at the ceiling
C
Can't shake the feeling
F                         Bb
All he wants to do is let go
     Dm
Only tears when he's dreaming
C
Running from his demons
F                         Bb
Trying to find a spark of hope
           Dm                          C
Don't give up on your life ‘cause it's not going right
F                         Bb
Come and let me save your soul
         Dm
He looks up at the ceiling
C
Looking for some meaning
F                    Bb
Happy days from long ago

Dm                       C
   Stuck below the depths of the ocean
F                               Bb
Trying to find a way to float
Dm                         C
   He keeps on going through the motions
F                                Bb
Looking for his way back home
Dm                      C
   Aching for the warmth on his body
F                                 Bb
Someone bring him out the cold
Dm                      C
   Won’t somebody please say something
F                                       Bb
Something that could save his soul

[Chorus]
         Dm              C
He's the boy who’s never crossed your mind
       F                           Bb
You'll never see him laugh, you'll never see him smile ‘cause
Dm              C             F   Bb
    He lost his youth so long ago
         Dm                     C
He’s the boy who's always sat alone
   F                          Bb
He never learned to dance, he never learned to love so
Dm             C                F    Bb
   You'll only notice when he's gone

                Dm
‘Cause he looks up at the ceiling
C
Can't help believing
        F                    Bb
There's nothing worth living for
Dm
Hanging off of the deep end
C
Searching for a reason
F                         Bb
Why he shouldn't lose control
           Dm                        C
Don't give up on your mind when your problems arise
F                                   Bb
You don't have to face them on your own
         Dm
With the wind and the seasons
C
He chases freedom
  F               Bb
Escaping to the unknown

Dm                 C
   Stuck below the sea never ending
F                         Bb
Trying to swim his way to shore
Dm                      C
   He keeps on running back through his memories
F                 Bb
To the way it was before
Dm                          C
   Can't you see that he keeps sinking
F                    Bb
Sinking to the ocean floor
Dm                C
   Won't somebody please say something
F                      Bb
Something worth living for

         Dm              C
He's the boy who’s never crossed your mind
       F                           Bb
You'll never see him laugh, you'll never see him smile ‘cause
Dm              C            F   Bb
    He lost his youth so long ago
         Dm                    C
He’s the boy who's always sat alone
   F                          Bb
He never learned to dance, he never learned to love so
Dm             C                F    Bb
   You'll only notice when he's gone
