[F] [C] [G]
[F]
[C] [G]
[F] I walk down [C] my street at night The [G] city lights are cold and violent
[F] I am [C] comforted by the [G] approaching sound of trucks and [F] sirens
Even though [C] the world's so rough These [G] men rush out to help the dying
[F] And though I owe [C] no use to them I [G] do my part by [E] simply [F] smiling
[D]
[C] [G] [F]
[G] [F] Get up, boys, [C] a cat calling [G] me As I pull my keys from my pocket
I [F] wonder if [C] this method of [G] courtesan has ever been effective
[F] Has any girl [C] in history [G] said, sure, you seem so nice, let's get it [F] on
Still [C] I always shock them when [G] I answer, hi, my name's Amanda
[F] And I'm not gonna live my life [C] on one side of an ampersand
[G] Even if I went with [F] you I'm not the girl you think I am
And I'm not gonna match you, no, [C] lose my voice completely, no
[G] I'm not gonna watch you [F] cause I'm not the one that's [C] crazy
[G] [F] I've wasted [C] years of my [G] life agonizing about the [F] fires I started
When I [C] thought that to [G] be strong you must be flame [F] retardant
And now to trust [C] the world's cause, the [G] world's a question
How authentic they are, there is [F] always someone [C]
criticizing [G] me
She just likes playing [F] gospel like [C] my [G]
dad
[F] I remember [C] what you [G] said
There's [F] no such thing as [C]
fair [G] play
But you've [Am] got the headstones already all [C] carved up and pretty
Your [D] sex satisfaction knows [C] his and hers [Am] matching
The daisies are push [C]-upin', pears to the [D] horizon
Your eyes full of ketchup, it's nice that [Am] you're trying
The headstones already [G] all carved up and [D] pretty
Your sex satisfaction knows his and hers [Am] matching
The daisies are push [C]-upin', pears to the horizon
[D] Your eyes full of ketchup, [C] it's nice that you're trying
[F] But I'm not gonna lose my light [C] on one side of an ampersand
[G] Even if I went with you [F] I'm not the girl you think I am
And I'm not gonna match you, [C] no, lose my voice [G] completely, no
I'm not gonna watch you cause [F] I'm not the one that's crazy
[C]
[G] As [F]
I wake up, [C] two o [G]'clock fire
Burn the block but [F] ironically stopped at my [C] apartment
And [G] my housemates are all sleeping soundly
And [F] nobody
[C] deserves to [G] die
You were awful mad, man
[F] That if I [C] didn't love you then you [G] had just one alternative
[F] And I may be romantic, [C] I may risk my life for it
[G] But I ain't gonna die for [F] you, you know I ain't no Juliet
And I'm not gonna watch you [C] while you burn yourself out, baby
[G] No, I'm not gonna stop [F] you cause I'm not the one that's crazy
[C]
[G] I'm [F] not the one that's [C] crazy
