Verse 1:
      A augmentedA        A7A7
It's the nausea before the game
     A augmentedA             A7A7
And the pain that won't subside in winter
     D MajorD         E MajorE
It's the knees that threaten to go bad,
   D MajorD       E MajorE          F#m7F#m7
The body that you thought you had, that lied
      D MajorD        E MajorE       F# minorF#m
It's the scores that go unanswered and unsatisfied:

Chorus:
   F# minorF#m       D MajorD
The growing up, the falling down,
   F# minorF#m       D MajorD
The throwing up, the shame
   D MajorD          E MajorE
The silent prayers, the nausea,
   A augmentedA
The game


Verse 2:
   A augmentedA         A7A7
It's anxiety when you recall
 A augmentedA                        A7A7
Girls who touch you when you're walking down the hall
 A7A7
Nausea before the game,
 A7A7        A augmentedA
Nausea before the game

      F# minorF#m     E MajorE
It's the promise of a perfect life
  F# minorF#m
A augmentedA perfect house
  E MajorE         D7D7
A augmentedA perfect wife she'll be

      F# minorF#m     E MajorE
It's the promise of a perfect star
   F# minorF#m
Who's me

Chorus:
   F# minorF#m       D MajorD
The growing up, the falling down,
   F# minorF#m       D MajorD
The throwing up, the shame
   D MajorD          E MajorE
The silent prayers, the nausea,
   A augmentedA
The game

   F# minorF#m       Bm7Bm7
The sneaking in, the passing out
   D MajorD
And where to place the blame.
   D MajorD        E MajorE
The dying swans, the nausea,
   A augmentedA
The game

Hut!

Pray for him

Hut!

Pray for us all

Hut!

But pray for the boy
      A augmentedA  A7A7
With the ball


Verse 3:
     A augmentedA            A7A7
There is something lacking in my play
      A augmentedA          A7A7
There are rules I must not be aware of
   F# minorF#m           A7A7
If I touch her breast, would she applaud?
   F# minorF#m       A7A7
Would she protest? Appeal to God?
   D MajorD
And weep?
   D MajorD          E MajorE
If I touch her would she let me fall
 F# minorF#m
Asleep?

  D MajorD         E MajorE
I touch her eyes, her lips are warm,
  F# minorF#m
Her nose is much the same
    D MajorD        E MajorE
We're waiting for the whistle sound
   F# minorF#m        B minorBm
She strokes my head and turns around
  E7E7
I hear my name,
   E MajorE
The nausea,
