Jason Mraz - The boy's gone

Well, here is another great song of the live album: Jason Mraz's Beautiful Mess Live on earth.

This is my favorite of the album. 'Cause it's acoustic but he performs its without any people watching.

Lyrics of course:

The boy's gone. The boy's gone home.
The boy's gone. The boy's gone home.

What will happen to a face in the crowd when it finally gets too crowded.
And what will happen to the origins of sound after all the sounds have sounded
Well I hope I never have to see that day but by god I know it's headed our way
So I better be happy now that the boy's going home.
The boy's gone home.

And what becomes of a day for those who rage against it
And who will sum up the phrase for all left standing around in it

Well I suppose we'll all make our judgement calls
We'll walk it alone, stand up tall, then march to the fall
So we better be happy now that we'll all go home.
That we'll all go home.

Be so happy with the way you are
Just be happy that you made it this far
Go on be happy now.
Please be happy now.

Because you say that this, this is something else (alright)
I say that this, this is something else (well alright)
I say that this, oh, this is something, this is something else
Oo thi-thi-thi-thi-this is all, thi-thi-thi-thi-this is yeah,
thi-thi thi-thi-thi-this is all something else

Well I tried to live my life and lived it so well
But when it's all over is it heaven or is it hell
So I better be happy now that no one can tell, nobody knows
I'm gonna be happy with the way that I am
I'm gonna be happy with all that I stand for
I'm gonna be happy now because the boy's going home.

The boy's gone home.

Yeah the boy's gone home.
Yeah the boy's gone home.
Yeah the boy's gone home.

Best version of "The Boy's Gone" and one of the most sensitive songs that Jason is ever made. :'-)

im surprised this was on his Beautiful Mess CD cause it originally came out on his Waiting For My Rocket album which came out in 2002...he always sings his songs a little different each time though so its ok =P

GUITARISTS: I'm thinking about performing this in memory of a friend who passed away recently. It is a gig at my college and its on friday. I am not a brilliant guitar player, but I am capable. (Can handle songs like fast car by tracy chapman, she is love by parachute and id rather be with you by joshua radin)

Think its possible by Friday? (Its tuesday for me atm - don't know where the responses will be coming from)

Thanks
