_ [Am] _ _
What's in Boston?
_ [A] You know, I thought I'd set the world on fire.

_ _ I'm not like the students, [A] _ I'm not like the housewives,
born in a second [Am] time.

I'll do some fun,
_ you oughta get you some sleep.
_ _ _ Burn all my notebooks, what's good on notebooks?
I never want my [Am] place to rot.
