[Verse 1]
---------------------
B5    C5
  Sometimes, I try to do things
B5   C5                                 B5          C5
  And  it just doesn't work out the way I want it to
               B5        C5
And I get real frustrated
         B5      C5
And like,  I try hard to do it
            B5            C5                               B5           C5
And I like, take my time, but it just doesn't work out the way I want it  to
            B5             C5
It's like I concentrate on it real hard
       B5                C5
But it just doesn't work out
                 B5                 C5
And everything I do and everything I  try
         B5       C5
It never turns out
             B5             C5
It's like, I need time to figure these things out
    B5                    C5
But there's always someone  there going
     B5                   C5                                          B5              
"Hey Mike, you know, we've  been noticing you've been having a lot of problems lately,
     C5
 you know?
                 B5      C5
You should maybe get away
                           B5             C5
And like, maybe you should talk about it, you'll feel a lot better"
B5             C5                     B5                C5
  And I go, "No  it's okay, you know, I'll figure it out
                    B5           C5
Just leave me alone,  I'll figure  it out, you know?
         B5           C5
I'm just working on myself"
         B5              C5                            B5               C5
They go, "Well you know, if you want to talk about it, I'll be here, you  know
                    B5                C5
And you'll probably feel a lot better if you talk about it
   B5                       C5
So why don't you talk about it?"
            B5                C5           B               C
I go, "No I don't want to, I'm  okay! I'll figure it out myself!"
    B             C
But they just keep bugging me
B             C                  B         C
They just keep bugging me and it builds up inside

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
          B           C
So you're gonna be institutionalized
B                                C
You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes
B              C
You won't have any say
        B                       C
They'll brainwash you until you see their way

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
F#               A     G#
  I'm not crazy! (Institution!)
F#                           A     G#
You're the one that's crazy! (Institution!)
       F#                A     G#
You're driving me crazy! (Institution!)
     B              C
They stick me in an institution
    B               C
And said it was the only solution
   B                     C         B
To give me the needed professional help
                    C        B
To protect from the enemy, myself

[Verse 2]
---------------------
B5 C5
   I was in my room
B5                    C5                     B5                  C5
  And I was just like,  staring at the walls thinking about everything
                      B5                    C5
But then again, I was thinking about nothing
            B5          C5                               B5
And then my mom came in,  and I didn't even know she was there
C5                              B5
She called my name and I didn't hear her
             C5                        B5
And then she started screaming, "Mike! Mike!"
C5                          B5          C5
And I go, "What? What's the matter?" She
goes, "What's the matter with you?"
B5               C5
  I go, "There's nothing wrong mom"
    B5                   C5              B5       C5
She goes, "Don't tell me that, you're on drugs!" I
                     B5                 C5                            B5          C5
go, "No mom, I'm not on drugs, I'm okay,  I'm just thinking, you know?  Why don't you 
get me a pepsi?"
    B5        C5
She goes, "No!  You're on drugs!"
B5      C5             B5         C5
  I go, "Mom, I'm okay,  I'm just thinking"
              B5         C5                        B            C
And she goes, "No! You're  not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal
people don't act that way!"
B      C                   B              C                 B
 I go, "Mom, just get me a Pepsi, please? All I want's a Pepsi"
    C
And she wouldn't give it to me
B5    C5             B5
  All I wanted was a Pepsi
C5
Just one Pepsi
B5        C5
  And she wouldn't give it to me
B         C
Just a Pepsi!

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
     B5                     C5
They give you a white shirt with long sleeves
B5                            C5
Tied around your back, you're treated like thieves
B5            C5
Drug you up because they're lazy
B5                    C5        F#
It's too much work to help a crazy

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
               A     G#
I'm not crazy! (Institution!)
F#                           A     G#
You're the one that's crazy! (Institution!)
       F#                A     G#
You're driving me crazy! (Institution!)
     B5             C5
They stick me in an institution
B5              C5
Said it was the only solution
   B5                    C5
To give me the needed professional help
   B5               C5       B5
To protect from the enemy, myself

[Verse 3]
---------------------
B5 C5                     B5              C5
   I'm sitting in my room,  and my mom and  my dad came in
B5              C5
  They pulled up  a chair and they sat down
B5               C5                B5
  They go, "Mike,  we need to talk to you"
C5               B5            C5
And I go, "Okay, what's the matter?"
                      B5                C5                                    B5   
They go, "Me and your mom, we've been noticing lately you've been having a lot  of 
        C5
problems
                         B5       C5
And you've been going off  for no reason
            B5                     C5
And we're afraid you're gonna hurt somebody
            B5                    C5
And we're afraid you're gonna hurt  yourself,
B5           C5                     B5          C5           B5                C5      
  So we decided that it would be in your best interest if we put you somewhere you 
                    B5       C5
could get the help that you need"
         B5      C5                      B5      C5
And I go,  "Wait!  What are you talking about? We
         B5  C5
decided?!  My  best interest?!
B5      C5                 B5       C5
  How do  you know what my best interest is?
B5          C5       B5     C5
How can you say what my best  interest is?
B         C                     B       C
 What are you trying to say? I'm crazy?!
            B              C
When I went to your schools
  B           C
I went to your churches
B5 C5             B5     C5                B5       C5
  I  went to your institutional learning facilities!
   B               C
So how can you say I'm crazy?!

[Pre-Chorus (3)]
---------------------
     B5                C5
They say they're gonna fix my brain
  B5                   C5
Alleviate my suffering and my pain
B5                   C5
But by the time they fix my head
B5        C5
Mentally, I'll be dead

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
F#               A     G#
  I'm not crazy! (Institution!)
F#                           A     G#
You're the one that's crazy! (Institution!)
       F#                A     G#
You're driving me crazy! (Institution!)
     B5             C5
They stick me in an institution
B5              C5
Said it was the only solution
   B5                    C5
To give me the needed professional help
      B5            C5       B5
To protect from the enemy, myself
