Stupid Boy- Keith Urban                                                                  
        (Capo on 1st Fret)


Intro:
Acoustic Guitar:
                   

Verse 1:
                              
Well she was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and different
              
Stupid boy... you can't fence that in
Stupid boy... it's like holdin' back the wind

Chorus:
                                          
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

                        
She never even knew she had a choice
                                     
And that's what happens when the only voice
                             
She hears is telling her she can't
                    
Stupid boy
                   
Stupid boy

Verse 2:
                                        
So what makes you think you could take a life
                             
And just push it, push it around
                               
I guess to build yourself up so high
                                 
You had to take her and break her down
Well.....

Chorus:
                                         
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

                         
She never even knew she had a choice
                                      
And that's what happens when the only voice
                              
She hears is telling her she can't

Bridge:
                  
You stupid boy

You always had to be right
                                           
And now you lost the only thing that ever made you feel alive

Guitar Solo:
(       ) x2

Chorus:
                                         
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans

                           
She never even knew she had a choice
                                     
And that's what happens when the only voice
                              
She hears is telling her she can't

Verse 3:
                 
You stupid boy
                                          
Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy
                                  
It took a while for her to figure out she could run
                         
But when she did, she was long gone, long gone  (fade out)
