[N] [G]
[F] [Gb] [D] [Bb]
[D] [Eb]
[C]
I wanted to change the world, but I could not even change my underwear.
[F] And when the shit got really, really out of hand, [G]
I had it all the way up to my hairline,
[C] which keeps receding like my self-confidence.
As if I ever had any of that stuff in me.
[F] I hope I didn't destroy your celebration, [G] or your bad myths for birthday party or your Christmas.
[C] You put me in this cage and [Cm] threw away [C] the bee.
It was this us and no shit [Cm] that did me [C] in.
[F] You tell me that my life was based [Dm] upon a [F] lie.
I [G]
casually mentioned that I pissed in [F] your [G] coffee.
[C] I hope you know that all I want from you is sex.
To be with someone who looks smashing in athletic [F] wear.
But if your haircut isn't right, you'll be dismissed.
[G] You'll get your walking papers and you can leave now.
I [Gm]
[C] don't [E] know what you want [C] from this world.
I really don't know what you want from this world.
[F]
I don't know what it is you want to want from me.
[G] You really have no [C]
control over me.
I'm [F]
a disaster.
[G] What's the time?
[C]
[F]
[Dm]
[G]
[C] You're gonna be the one to save me [F] from [C] myself.
You better bring your stung gun and [F] perhaps a crowbar.
You better pack your lunch and get up really early.
[G]
And you should probably get down on your knees and pray.
[C] It's really fun to look embarrassed [Cm] all the [C] time.
Like you could never cut the mustard with the big boys.
[F] I really don't know who the fuck you think you are.
[G] Did I ever see your license and your registration?
[F] [Gb]
[Bb] [C]
You don't know what you want from [F] this world.
[C] I really don't know what you want from this world.
I [F]
don't know what it is you want to want from me.
You really have no [Bb] control over me.
[C]
Why don't you let me see the love of my life?
[F]
Why don't you tell me about yourself?
[G] You think I'm a rubbish man.
[C]
[F]
[Dm]
[G]
[C] So Jesus is a good human being to love.
You could still be sitting right here ten years from now.
[F] You're just a sucker but we'll see who gets the last laugh.
[G] Who knows maybe you'll get to be the next Queen of Ten.
