Verse 1
Bb
In these days of changing ways,
Dm
Bb
so -called liberated days,
Eb
a story comes to mind of
George, a boy, was gay, guess,
Dm
Bb
nothing more, nothing less,
Eb
Bb
the kindest guy I ever knew.
His mother's tears fell in vain,
Dm
Bb
the afternoon George tried to explain
Eb
Bb
that he needed love like all the rest.
Har said there must be a mistake,
how can my son not be straight,
Eb
after all I've said and done
Bb
Eb
Cm
Bb
for him
Leaving home on a greyhound bus,
Dm
cast out by the ones he loves,
Eb
a victim of these gay days it
Bb
Dm
Eb
seems
Cm
Bb
Georgey went to New York town,
where he quickly settled down,
Eb
and soon became the toast
Bb
of the great white way,
accepted by Manhattan's elite,
and all the places that were sheathed.
Eb
Cm
Bb
No party was complete without George
Along the Boulevard he grew
And all the old queens blew a fuse

Everybody loved Georgie

Eb
Bb
The last time I saw George alive
Was in the summer of 75
Eb
He said he was in love,
Bb
I said I'm pleased George attended the opening night
of another Broadway height
Eb
Bb
But split before the final curtain fell
Deciding to take a shortcut home,
arm in arm they meant no wrong
Eb
A gentle breeze blew down
Bb
Eb
Fifth Avenue
Bb
Out of a dark inside street
came a New Jersey gang
With just one aim,
Eb
Bb
to roll some innocent passerby
Daring to the fearful fight
Screams rung out in the night
Eb
Bb
Judges headed a sidewalk cornerstone
A leather kid, a switchblade knife
He did not intend to take his life
Eb
If he just pushed his luck
Bb
a little too far that night
The sight of blood dispersed again
A crowd gathered, the police came
Eb
Cm
An ambulance screamed to a halt
Eb
Bb

Bb
on 53rd and 3rd
George's life ended there
But I ask, who really cares?
Eb
Bb
George once said to me, and I quote,
He said, wait or hesitate,
Get in gear before it's too late,
Eb
Bb
You may never get another chance.
Cause youth's a mask,
but it don't last,
Live it long and live it fast,
Eb
Bb
George, he was a friend of mine.
Dm
