What makes you (F#m)think you’re some thing (B)spe cial when you smile.

Child like,

jack knife

(F#m)in your sweat y hands:

some kind of (F#m)in no cence is (E)mea sured out in years.

You don’t know (F#m)what it’s like to (B)spe cial when you smile.

(B)lis ten to a your fears.

(Bm7)you can talk to me.

(Em6)You can talk to me; if you’re (F)lone ly, you can (Em)talk to me.

Hey bull (B)dog!

Hey Bull (B)dog!
