D
Iâm a little boy with glasses, the one they call the geek

A D Bm
Donât laugh at me, donât call me names
G A
Donât get your pleasure from my pain
D Bm
In Godâs eyes weâre all the same

Donât laugh at me
D
Iâm a cripple on the corner, youâve passed me on the street
Bm
And I wouldnât be here begginâ if I had enough to eat
G A
And donât think I donât notice that our eyes never meet
D
I lost my wife and little boy when someone crossed that yellow line

The day we laid them in the ground is the day I lost my mind
G A
And right now Iâm down to holdinâ this little cardboard sign ............
