As thereâs no tab for that song so far, I tried my best to come up with an easy one.
Suggestions, corrections (esp. for the âsoloâ) and comments highly appreciated!
I usually play the Fâs and Gâs as staccato as possible and strum the Emâs loosely, but
thatâs up to you, I guess.
For the intro:

E|--------------------------|
A boy like me is told
He is both nine and ninety
And a boy like me
Should shut those books
Join the army
And a boy like me
Would never be seen
Fighting for peace
I want total chaos
And a holiday home in the east

(play twice)
And a boy like me
Should know much better than
To raise his flag in stormy weather
I just can t get enough electric shocks
I wanna buy a lighthouse
And ride a giraffe on the rocks
[I don t give up]
I want two dogs
Two cats
A big kitchen
And a welcome mat
I want all this
And all i shall have
Oh no, i don t give up
A boy like me
Don t ever give up
Give up his dream
No
