    Once there was this kid who 
    G               D              A               D 
    got into an      accident and    couldn't come to school, but 
    G                A        D 
    when he finally   came back 
    A   D    G              D                A 
    his  hair  had turned from black into bright white.  He 
    A#                 D                A# 
    said that it was  from when the     cars had smashed 
    G 
    so   hard.

    Once there was this girl who 
    G               D              A               D 
    wouldn't go and  change with the girls in the     change room.  And 
    G                A        D 
    when they finally made her 
    A   D    G              D                A 
    they saw   birthmarks all  over her          body.  She 
    A#                 D                A# 
    couldn't quite ex plain it.  They'd always just 
     G 
    been there.

    But both girl and boy were glad 
    Em                  D         A     G 
    that one kid had it worse than that 

    Bm   A             D     A 
    'Cause then there was this boy whose 
    G               D              A               D 
    parents made him come directly   home right after school.  And 
    G                A        D 
    when they went to their church 
    A   D    G              D                A 
    they shook and lurched all over the church   floor.  He 
    A#                 D                A# 
    couldn't quite ex plain it.  They'd always just 
     G 
    gone there.
