F#
Who's that boy with the vacant stare
C#
Walking round like he just don't care
F#
Looks so cool in his purple socks
C#
Saw him sitting on a pillar box

[Chorus]
        B            F#
Singing sha la la la la
B            F#
Sha la la la la
B            F#
Sha la la la la

E                F#
When he walks on by
E                F#
He looks at the sky
E                F#
What is that boy on
E                F#
He's a strange person

[Verse 2]
F#
Lives all alone in a beat up car
C#
Don't have to drive so he don't get far
F#
Guess his head must be some place else
C#
Cause he's always talking to himself

[Chorus]
        B            F#
Singing sha la la la la
B            F#
Sha la la la la
B            F#
Sha la la la la

E                F#
When he walks on by
E                F#
He looks at the sky
E                F#
What is that boy on
E                F#
He's a strange person

[Verse 3]
F#
Who's that boy with the turquoise hair
C#
Walking round like he's still in bed
F#
Guess his head must be some place else
C#
Cause he's always talking to himself
