I Kicked A Boy

From: * (Pablo Kang)

Measurements of time
====================
'  = 1/32
^  = 1/16
.  = 1/8
!  = 1/4
o/ = half note
o  = whole note

Other notation
==============

a+b (where a and b are measurements of time) =
   add 'a' plus 'b' more time on that note

(e.g.)  !+. means a quarter note + an eighth of a note time

******************

.__. = means that the previous note connects over
       (in other words, don't play the other note)

******************

u : strum up
d : strum down

(lyrics from *)
(contributor of lyrics: unknown)


when the weather's fine, when it's sunny outside
think about the time I kicked a boy 'til he cried
oh, I could've been wrong, but I don't think I was
he was such a child

when I am alone, I remember so well
how merrily I tripped a boy so he fell
and I could've been wrong, but I don't think I was
he was totally wild

and I've been wondering lately
just who's gonna save me

now I have a cold, and no story to tell
and I'd marry you but I'm so unwell
and although I could've been wrong
well I don't think I was
he was totally wild

and I've been wondering lately
just who's gonna save me
you just should've been [warned/wise]
[oh/our] hysterical child
where'd you learn to do that
