Where do the boys go when it gets cold out
               Em
Do they have a place to sleep?
G                D/F#                  Em
  Where did their mums go? Did they get taken
                Em
Or had they had enough of taking care of things?
G              D/F#                Em
  It's hard to say if someone's at fault
G               D/F#              Em
  If I don't do anything is it my fault?

Cause they're not where I want them right now

I know there's good in every-thing
