How Soon Is Now

G   Bb C


[Verse]
        G
I’m the son and the heir
       Bb             C            G
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
                                             Bb  C
I’m the son and heir of nothing in particular


[Chorus]
Eb
   You shut you mouth
Bb
   How can you say
Dm   F                        G
   I go about the things the wrong way
      Eb                    Bb
I’m human and I need to be loved
Dm         F              G
Just like everybody else does


[Verse]
        G
I’m the son and the heir
       Bb             C            G
of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
                                             Bb  C
I’m the son and heir of nothing in particular


[Chorus]
Eb
   You shut you mouth
Bb
   How can you say
Dm   F                        G
   I go about the things the wrong way
      Eb                    Bb
I’m human and I need to be loved
Dm          F             G
Just like everybody else does


[Bridge]
Eb                                  Bb
   There’s a club if you’d like to go
                 Dm     F              G
You could meet somebody   who really loves you

        Eb
So you go and you stand on your own
Bb
   And you leave on your own
         Dm              F                   G
And you go home and you cry and you want to die


[Interlude]
G


[Bridge]
Eb                                 Bb
   When you say it’s gonna happen now
Dm                       G
   When exactly do you mean
          Eb                 Bb
See I’ve already waited too long
Dm
   And all my hope is gone


[Chorus]
               Eb
You shut you mouth how can you say
Dm    F                       G
   I go about the things the wrong way
      Eb                    Bb
I’m human and I need to be loved
Dm          F             G
Just like everybody else does
