How Soon Is Now

         E
I am the son and the heir
     G                A          E
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar, I am the son and heir
                        G   A
Of nothing in particular

[Chorus 1]
E5  Cmaj7            G            F#m/A
       You shut your mouth, how can you say
Bm   D                      E
     I go about things the wrong way ?
        E5  Cmaj7          G  F#m/A
I am Human and I need to be loved
Bm       D
Just like everybody else does

[Bridge]
E5  Cmaj7                        G  F#m/A
     There's a club if you'd like to go
               Bm          D               E
You could meet somebody who really loves you
E5                        Cmaj7
So you go, and you stand on your own
    G            F#m/A
And you leave on your own
Bm                  D
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die

     I go about things the wrong way ?
        E5  Cmaj7          G  F#m/A
I am Human and I need to be loved
Bm        D                E
