i was on my lunch break; i almost started crying / for the boy at the top of the bridge 
F        D#              C#               G#          F                     G#          D# 
he didn't jump, but if he had, he wouldn't be the only one / who thought that he had to give in 


G#         C#              A#               C#    G#    C#            A#               C#

 asleep 
F     D#             C#                   G#                    F              G#             D# 
i didn't talk with a lisp; i dressed like all the straight boys did / i didn't talk about who i had 
 kissed 


F    D#    C#    G#    F    G#   D#    (2x) 


G#         C#               A#               C#    G#         C#             A#               C# 
   and now you don't really have it all that bad /    and now i don't really have it all that bad 

F           D#       C#      G#                 F       G#              C#

F       D#              C#                G#               F       G#             C# 
i don't kiss you at the rest stop off the interstate / and i don't kiss you at my parents' 
            D# 
 house when they are not asleep 


F        C        C#        G#    A#    (2x)

i was on my lunch break; i almost started crying / ‘cause it really does get better if you wait 
F             D#             C#            G#          F            G#          D# 
and there are times now when i still feel afraid / but gone are the times when i feel ashamed 


G#                 C#               A#      C#           G#          C#        A#            C#
