Looking [C] at me standing in [F] this bright [G] light,
meant to be stereo.
[C] When everybody [F] loves you, [G] _ _ [B] you should [Am] never be lonely.
[F] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ Well, I [Am] want to paint myself [F] a picture.
[C] I [Dm] want to paint [G] myself in blue and red and [Am] black and gray.
All the [F] beautiful colors are very, [G] very meaningful.
Yeah, you know, gray [Am] is my favorite [F] color.
I just [G] get so confused every [Am] day.
But if I knew [F] how, so I would [G] buy myself a gray guitar [C] and play.
Mr.
[F] Jones and [G] me look into the future.
We [C] stare at all the [F] beautiful women.
[G] She's looking at you.
I don't think so.
She's looking [C] at me standing in this spotlight.
[G] Look at me, I got myself this gray guitar, man, [C] when everybody [F] loves me.

[C] I know, [F] I know.
Everybody wants to pass this cast.
We [A] all [E] want to be big, [Am] big, big, [G] big, big stars.
Yeah, but then we [A] get second [G] thoughts about that. _
[Am] So believe in me.
Man, [F] I don't believe in anything, [Am] and I don't want to be someone to [G] believe.
You should not believe in [C] me.

[C] We stare at all the [F] beautiful women.
Man, [G] she's perfect for you.
There's got to be [C] someone for me.
I want to [F] be Bob Dylan.
[G] Mr.
Jones, look at you as someone just a little more [C] funky.
Well, man, when [F] everybody loves you, [G] sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you [C] can be.
Can't you hear me?
[G] I'm screaming.
[C] I did not go outside [G] yesterday. _
[C] Oh, don't wake me, because I [G] was dreaming. _
[C] And I might just [F] stay inside [G] again today. _ _
[C] _ Mr.
[F] Jones and [G] me, we don't see each other much anymore.
