G Bm C G
Oh yeah
VERSE:
G
In these days of changing ways
Bm
So called liberated days
C G
A story comes to mind of a friend of mine
G
Georgie boy was gay I guess
Bm
Nothing more or nothing less
C G
The kindest guy I ever knew
G
His mother's tears fell in vain
Bm
The afternoon george tried to explain
C G
That he needed love like all the rest
G
Pa said there must be a mistake
Bm
How can my son not be straight
C G
After all I've said and done for him
INSTRUMENTAL:
G Bm C G
VERSE:
G
Leaving home on a greyhound bus
Bm
Cast out by the ones he loves
C G
A victim of these gay days it seems
INSTRUMENTAL:
G Bm C G
VERSE:
G
Georgie went to new york town
Bm
Where he quickly settled down
C G
And soon became the toast of the great white way
G
Accepted by manhattan's elite
Bm
In all the places that were chic
C G
No party was complete without George
G
Along the boulevards he'd cruise
Bm
And all the old queens blew a fuse
C G
Everybody loved Georgie boy
INSTRUMENTAL & WHISTLING:
G Bm C G
VERSE:
G
The last time I saw George alive
Bm
Was in the summer of seventy-five
C G
He said he was in love I said I'm pleased
G
George attended the opening night
Bm
Of another broadway hype
C G
But split before the final curtain fell
G
Deciding to take a short cut home
Bm
Arm in arm they meant no wrong
C G
A gentle breeze blew down fifth avenue
INSTRUMENTAL:
G Bm C G
VERSE:
G
Out of a darkened side street came
Bm
A New Jersey gang with just one aim
C G
To roll some innocent passer-by
G
There ensued a fearful fight
Bm
Screams rang out in the night
C G
Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone
G
A leather kid, a switchblade knife
Bm
He did not intend to take his life
c
He just pushed his luck a little too far that night
G
The sight of blood dispersed the gang
Bm
A crowd gathered, the police came
C G
An ambulance screamed to a halt on fifty-third and third
INSTRUMENTAL:
G Bm C G
G
Georgie's life ended there
Bm
But I ask who really cares
C G
George once said to me and I quote
G
He said never wait or hesitate
Bm
Get in kid, before it's too late
C G
You may never get another chance
G
'Cos youth a mask but it don't last
Bm
Live it long and live it fast
C G
Georgie was a friend of mine
