What did I ever do [Cm] to you?
That you should treat [Gm] me this way?
[G] Is it really [Cm] such a crime
For an angel to speak [Gm] his mind?
In time I'll try to shed some [Cm] light
If I were a big [Gm] boy
I wouldn't cry
[Cm] But since [Ab] I'm not a big [Gm] boy
[D] I haven't cried
[Am] What did I ever [Cm] do so wrong
That you should [Gm] cast me from grace?
Though I love to [Cm] rule in hell, here
Though I miss the [Gm] taste of heaven
It's a soft and cool [Cm]
embrace
If I were a [Fm] big [G]
boy
[Gm] I wouldn't cry
[Cm]
But since I'm not a big [Gm]
boy
I'll have [D] to close my eyes
And picture [Bb] what it's like

[F] I'm almost a [Bb] human being
[D]
I [Dm] [Gm] [F]
[Cm] still [Gm] remember your light
And it was [Cm] streaming down
[Gm] And burning out my eyes
[Cm] If I were a big [Gm] boy
I wouldn't [Cm] cry
But since I'm not a big [Gm] boy
I'll [D] have to close my eyes
And picture what it's [Bb] like
I'm just [D] like you, I'm made by [Gm]
him
Despised by [F] they, I'm almost [Bb]
me
I'm [D] nearly human, [Gm]
look at me
[F] I'm almost a human [Bb]
being

look at me
[F] I'm almost a human [Bb]
being
I'm just [D] like you, better [Gm] than he
