When I asked for sons?

Tranquil as a forest

Somehow I'll make a man out of you

Say good bye to those who knew me
D                     G                  C
Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym
C               D
This guy's got 'em scared to death
B                          Em
Hope he doesn't see right through me

Now I really wish that I knew how to swim

Chorus:
 D    C               D            B        Em

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
