And the tears she cried She cried for none other
E                                           Esus4
Than her little boy lost in our little world that hated

Hey Jack now for the tricky part
        G#m7                       Asus2
When you where the brightest star Who were the shadow

Of the San Francisco beat boys You were their favorite

And think of their bloodstone days
