[D]Shall I tell you a story

[A]A story of a poor little boy

[Bm]A little boy who met a little girl

with a[G]thousand smiles

 

[D]He named each one of her smiles

[A]He filled his room with her pictures

[Bm]When she left there was nothing

left but a[G]thousand smiles

 

He[Bm]held her ti[A]ghtly the[G]last minute before goodbye

[Bm]This is what he[A]whisp[G]ered

 

“There's[D]nothing I will forget[A]nothing I won't forgive

[Bm]I never thought I'd come to this

[G]Can't you see[D]Nothing I can regret[A]Nothing I won't miss

but I c[Bm]an hide it for now

'cause you gave me a[G]thousand ways to smile”

 

[D]It occurred a dozen years later

[A]The next day was his 23rd birthday

[Bm]His idle life ended up in[G]shooting a girl

 

[D]He cursed his whole lost life

[A]in a tiny concrete cage

[Bm]He looked around and found

there's nothing[G]left in his hands

 

He[Bm]held himself ti[A]ghtly the[G]last minute before goodbye

[Bm]This is what he[A]whisp[G]ered

 

“There's[D]nothing I will forget[A]nothing I won't forgive

[Bm]I never thought I'd come to this

[G]Can't you see[D]Nothing I can regret[A]Nothing I won't miss

but I c[Bm]an hide it for now

'cause you gave me a[G]thousand ways to smile”
