Intro: DbBEbBAbDbBEEbB } x4
DbBAb
He seemed no different from the rest
DbBE
Just a healthy normal boy
DbBAb
His mama always did her best
DbBE
And he was daddy's pride and joy
DbBAb
He learned to walk and talk on time
DbBE
But never cared much to be held
DbBAb
and steadily he would decline
DbBE
Into his solitary shell
BAE
As a boy he was considered somewhat odd
BAE
Kept to himself most of the time
BAE
He would daydream in and out of his own world
GbmA
but in every other way he was fine
E
He's a Monday morning lunatic
B
Disturbed from time to time
A
Lost within himself
EB
In his solitary shell
EA temporary catatonic
B
Madman on occasion
A
When will he break out
EB
Of his solitary shell
IntroDbBAb
He struggled to get through his day
DbBE
He was helplessly behind
DbBAb
He poured himself onto the page
DbBE
Writing for hours at a time
BAE
As a man he was a danger to himself
BAE
Fearful and sad most of the time
BAE
He was drifting in and out of sanity
GbmA
But in every other way he was fine
E
He's a Monday morning lunatic
B
Disturbed from time to time
A
Lost within himself
EB
In his solitary shell
EA momentary maniac
B
With casual delusions
A
When will he be let out
EB
Of his solitary shell
