Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I nev[C] er[G] felt this way since I was ten,
[C]when I was a [G]boy
My mama gave a party, everybody came,
[C]when I was a [G]boy
There was this [D]girl, this pretty little girl
I wanted to [C]meet,
she lived down [G]the street[F][G]
I'll never forget the first thing she said,
[C]when I was a [G]boy
Get out of here with your raggedy head,
[C]when I was a [G]boy
Then she [D]smiled, we talked a while,
I asked her [C]name
And she said,
[G]James
[C]Yeah[G][F][G]
[C]Man, I knew I [G]was in love
From the [D]very first [G]day
And [C]it always seemed to
be [G]my whole house
That [D]I used to play
I [G]heard my papa say, move away
Oo[C]h, when I was a [G]boy
And I told that little girl of every next day
Oo[C]h, when I was a [G]boy
I had to [D]lie
Cause I started to cry
I told her [C]something
Had gotten my [G]eye[F][G]
I come back now,
things sure have changed
[C]From when I was a [G]boy
I didn't recognize this girl
My [C]love when I was a [G]boy
Now I'm a [D]man
I take her hand
She smiles and says
[C]Don't leave aga[G]in[C]
[G]Oh my love
When I was a boy
Oh we had good times together

[Outro 1]
When I was a boy
[G]
