[Verse 1]
[G]'m[Bm][D][A][D][Dsus4][G][Bm][D][G][Bm][A][D][G]
[Bm]sure[A] tha[D]t [G]I'm moving to [Bm]St. Louis[D]
Three [G]long years wondering
[Bm]here [D]in New York City
[G]I guess I'm looking for the
[Bm]right [D]way to do [A]this
[D]I g[G]uess I'm looking for the r[Bm]ight
[D]things to call [A]pretty[D]
Young [G]boys playing in the park [Bm]turning
their [D]backs to take [A]a shot[D]
You [G]know I'll stay sharp around [D]here'cause they're
stoning and leav[A]ing type[D]
It's the [G]kind of love that comes [D]and goes
when there's company coming around
What's a boy [G]to do [Bm]who knows
[D]no man now?
[A]What's a boy [G]to do who knows
no [Bm]man n[D]ow?

[Verse 2]
[D]
[G]Daddy's been looking [Bm]down
his nose at all [A]of them
And [G]I've been looking round
[Bm]for someone to tell me who I[A] am
[D]He kep[G]t saying I was [Bm]too
young to fin[A]ish a fight
I'd [G]die each time they [Bm]came I
never got [A]to draw my [D]knife
[G]Well it was just a pair of [D]shoes [Bm]in a middle
school [D]room [A]with the world watching in
[D]An ang[G]el is crying I'm dying[Bm] just
a little in[D]side [A]as they ran [D]away[A]
[D]Fun[G]ny which words stick aro[Bm]und 20 years
down when you're driv[A]ing alone
What's a boy to [G]do when there's
no [Bm]man at [A]home?[D]
What's a boy [G]to do when there's
no [Bm]man at home?
[A][D]

[Verse 3]
[A]
Well [G]I'll stack all my [Bm]books
in[D]to [A]perfect [D]rows
From [G]the biggest down
[Bm]to the small[A]est on[D]es
And I [G]buy [Bm]all the perf[D]ect [A]clothes
Bullet proof [G]and black,
where I [Bm]look [D]like a son
Well [G]it was just a rainy [Bm]night at his house
A bottle spin[A]ning around the [D]room[A]
And [G]everybody's singing and slip[Bm]ping down
the bottom of a [A]halfway rush of blood
And [G]I was grabbing Missy but I w[Bm]as trying
to find the light [A]switch in the dark
What's a boy to [G]do with no
[Bm]man in his h[A]eart?[D]
What's a [A]boy to [G]do with no
[Bm]man in his heart?
[A][D]

[Verse 4]
[A]
[D]It's all [G]quiet for the first time
With no [A]voices left to fall
I saw a [Bm]boy at the bottom of the bridge
His [G]car was left there on the top
It's four o'clock in the morning
Did[A]n't need to be like this
There's a white [Bm]sheet left to cover up
What [G]should have been a holy kiss
It's not like those days
It's [Bm]not like I'm scared of [A]you
What's the Son [G]of Man
[Bm]and a boy to do?[A]
What's the Son [G]of [Bm]Man and a boy to do?
