Idiot Boy chords by Ron Sexsmith

Capo @ 3

C
God so loved the idiot boy
C
He gave him a pair of eyes to explore
Am
Gave him a pair of hands to destroy
     G
Any good thing that he found
          C
He said ”Put this kid in a candy store.
C
Let him run around until he drops"
Am
Then just like a bull in a china shop
      G
Everything came crashing down
C

God so loved the idiot boy

Am
That he filled the night with dreams
     Dm7
Til dusty sunlight beams
                  G
Danced upon the floor
Am
Gave him a solo in the choir
       Dm7
Where songs of wild desire
                        G
Were all his voice was for
G
Lo lo lo lo lo lo

C
God so loved the idiot world
C
Give His his only son to kick around
Am
That was long ago in another town
          G
It could use a good laugh now
C
God so loved the idiot world

Chorus

C
God so loved the idiot boy
C
He gave him coffee grounds in a paper cup
Am
And a reason everyday to keep getting up
      G
In a world that drags you down
C
God so loved the idiot boy X3
