Gm | C 
F

[Verse 1]
---------------------
             F                       Dm
They've been sayin' you're sophisticated
           F                  Dm
They're complainin', overeducated
        F                            Dm
You are saying all the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
C
 Say it after me
          F                          Dm
They will blame us, crucify and shame  us
         F                      Dm
We can't help it if we are a problem
       F                            Dm
We are tryin' hard to get your attention
I'm climbin' up your wall
C
 Climbin' up your wall

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Gm
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
           C
I know you think of me when you think of her
            F
But then it don't make sense when you're trying hard
          Bb
To do the right thing, but without recompense
             Gm
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
            C
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
               F
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
             Bb
But then you want me to do it the same as you

[Bridge (1)]
---------------------
F | Dm | F | Dm 
F | Dm | F | Dm 
C

[Verse 2]
---------------------
         F                    Dm
You were waitin' for the elevator
         F                            Dm
You were sayin' all the words I'm dreaming
        F                         Dm
No more askin', questions, or excuses
Information's here
C
 Here and everywhere

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Gm
Don't go there 'cause you'll never return
           C
I know you think of me when you think of her
            F
But then it don't make sense when you're trying hard
          Bb
To do the right thing, but without recompense
             Gm
And then you did something wrong and you said it was great
            C
And now you don't know how you could ever complain
               F
Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to
             Bb
But then you want me to do it the same as you, and but

[Bridge (2)]
---------------------
Gm                C
  I don't, I don't want anything
F                Bb
 I know it's not,  it's not your fault
Gm              C
  I don't want anyone
F       Bb               Gm C F Bb
 As I do  in life for you

     Same shit, a different life
C                      F
 I'll get it right sometime
                Bb
Oh, maybe not tonight
                Gm
Oh, maybe not tonight

[Fade Out]
