There's a boy, fifteen, with a gun in his hand

Why they love like they do, like they do
G G/F# C C/B C
There's a girl, fifteen, with her head in a noose
Am C G G/F# G
Because she's damned to live, well she's damned to choose
G G/F# C C/B C
And the animals walked in two's by two's
Em Am G G/F# G
Showing love, like they do, like they do
G G/F# C C/B C
There's a girl, fifteen, although she isn't sure
Am C G G/F# G
Well how the hell could you want anything more?
