This boy can't swim, he's wearing too many skins

I hope he sinks, then he'll forget everything

Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together

Then realised those he lied to were cleverer

Left on the side they have long since rejoined him

Back in the fold thick as thieves they will weigh him down



2nd verse (chords as above)

This boy can't swim he's carrying too many sins

I hope he sinks, till he forgets everything



2nd chorus

'good as gold' alternates with 'thick as thieves'
