Ode To Boy chords by Yazoo

When he moves I watch him from behind
                   C
he turns and laughter flickers in his eyes
             G
intent and direct when he speaks, I watch his lips
    G             Bb
When he drives I love to watch his hands
            C
white and smooth almost feminine,
         G
almost american, I have to watch him.

Chorus
G              Bb             C
in his face age descends on youth, exaggeration on the truth
               G
he caught me looking then but soon his eyes forgot
  G       Bb                     C
and everything he seems to do reflects just another shade of blue
                 G
I saw him searching into you and ached a while

G              Bb
I watch his lips caress the glass,
                C
his fingers stroke its stem and pass
            G
to lift a cigarette at last, he dries his eyes
G          Bb
from a shadow by the stair
          C
I watch as he weeps unaware
            G
that I'm in awe of his despair, but I am there

(chorus repeat)
