[Intro 1]
[G][Am][Em][Am][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]Golden Boy Golden
Once alive but now he's [Em]dead
The cops, pumped him [G]full of [Am]lead
[Em]Golden Boy[Bm][D]
[G]Golden Boy
We placed the crown upon his [Em]head
The coffin, now his resting [Am]bed
He was the [Em]Golden Boy
[Am]A bullet[F] in the back is
what the coroner say
[Em]Another black boy on the corner day
Now [F]mama cryin' every day,
can't get out of bed
Your [Em]version of a self goin' [Dm]out of [G]my head
A [C]golden child,
he was made for the good life
[Bm]Where's the future for him?
A child and a wife [C]on his
way to the store
You heard this story [Bm]on the ne[G]ws b[D]efore
[G]Golden Boy,
once alive but now he's [Em]dead
The cops, they pumped
him full of [Am]lead[Bm]
Golden Boy
[G]Golden boy, we placed the
crown upon his [Em]head
The coffin now his resting [Am]bed
He [D]was a [Em]golden boy
[F]Mistaken identity, trademark hypocrisy
[Em]Now he must be an angel
watching over [G]me
[F]Ran away from that pig,
cause he was scared of head
[Em]Better he go and get [Dm]locked
up in [G]county [C]jail
Mama gave me a shirt,
wear his face on my chest
[Bm]Say a prayer for him every night,
God [C]bless
Hope he drinkin' ambrosia
from the Holy Grail
[Bm]Another victim [D]on earth, who justice has paid
[G]Yeah, yeah.
[Em]Yeah.
Here I [Am]die, here I die, here I die.
My [Bm]golden boy.
[G]Golden boy, golden boy,
[Em]golden boy, golden boy.
Can you [Am]hear [Bm]me?
[G]Golden boy,
once alive but [D]now he's [Em]dead
The cafe pumped him full [Am]of lead
[Em]Golden boy, he's dead you
