Intro 1

Verse 1
G 
Michael,
he knows what is right
C 
G 
Michael, he knows what is true
C 
Oh, but Michael,
G 
he runs to the end  of the earth crying
Am 
Because Mi  chael don't
D 
know what to do
G 
Bm 
Michael was just a young boy
C 
When his father blamed him
G 
for what went wrong
C 
And taking him down to
G 
the station in town
Am 
He said, I don't want to
D 
see you no more
G 
Cause your mama said you
don't need to know
Bm 
C 
And your sister's afraid
G 
what you've done
C 
So without a goodbye or
G 
a reason to try
Am 
Michael knows he can never go home
D 
G 
Oh, now Mi chael,
he knows what is right
C 
G 
Michael, he knows what is true
C 
Oh, but Michael,
G 
he runs to the end of the earth crying
Am 
Because Mi  chael don't
D 
know what to do
G 
Bm 
And Michael, said, knew the way
C 
G 
Just to find him a place of his own
C 
And as hard as he'd try,
G 
just enough to get by
Am 
Michael swore that he'd make it alone
D 
G 
But like a river that always runs dry,
Bm 
C 
Michael found he had
G 
nowhere to go
C 
Everywhere that he turned,
G 
he only got burned
Am 
D 
And in time, Michael only grew cold
G 
Oh, now Mi chael, he knows what is right
C 
G 
Yes, and Mi chael, he knows what is true
C 
Oh, that Michael,
G 
he runs to the end  of the earth crying
Am 
D 
Cause Michael don't know what to do
G 
Bm 
Well, I read in the paper today
C 
That a young man named
G 
Michael was found
C 
G 
At the end of the line, he ran out of time
Am 
D 
They said he was lying face down
G 
Bm 
And the only thing they could find
C 
G 
In his pocket, a paper that read
C 
To my father from Michael,
G 
I love you so much
Am 
Were the only words that it said
D 
G 
Oh, now Michael, knows what is right
C 
Yes, and Michael, he knows what is true
G 
C 
Ah, but Michael,
G 
he runs to the end  of the earth crying
Am 
D 
G 
Bm 
Cause Michael don't know what to do
C 
G 
C 
G 
Am 
D 
G 
May you be happy!
