[Ab] [Db] Sometimes I see some things that I shouldn't see
Simple patterns that are hidden right in front of me
Try to climb ever [D] higher, try to get to [Db] the sky
Throw up into the clouds, it's just a temporary high
I [Ab] said now what you trying to do?
If you're gonna see it [Db] through, it takes time
I [Ab] said it takes some time to figure [Db] it out
How do you follow it and cross it at the same time?
But you [D] just can't cross it, oh!
[Ab] [Gb] [Ab] I don't wanna say the things I have to say
Do you think that I'll ever say them at all?
Gotta be that, gotta get up with that act
Gotta wear the hat, I'll know what's on the mismatch
Square circles, turn around the hurdles
I read everything I found was a [Db] purpose
Can somebody show me how to get in?
Cause I can figure out how to [Ab] get in
Can [D] somebody show me I can see [Db] in the dark?
Can somebody take me, I can't stay [Ab] in the dark
Will you illuminate me all alone out of the dark?
Turning pages, turning corners, turning into [Db] another
Turning into [Ab] a song that's just like every other
You say to get there, you already have to be there to start
How do you get there when you know it's what you need and you're not?
I said now what you trying to do?
If you're gonna see it through, it takes time
I said it takes some time to figure [Db] it out
[Ab] How do you follow it and cross [Db] it at the same time?
But [Gbm] you just can't cross it, oh
[Ab] [Gb] [Ab] I don't wanna say the things I have to say
Do you think that I'll ever say them at all?
Gotta be that, gotta get up with that act
Gotta wear the hat, I'll know what's on the mismatch
Square circles, turn around the hurdles
I read everything I found [Db] was a purpose
Can somebody show me how to get in?
Cause I [Ab] can figure out how to get in
Can somebody show me I can see [Db] in the dark?
Can [Ab] somebody say that I can see [Db] in the dark?
Will you [Ab] illuminate me out of the dark?
Look what I made for you
Knew if I paid my dues, how will they pay you?
When you first come in the game, they try to play you
Then you drop a couple of hits, look how they wave to you
From Marcy to Madison Square
To the only thing that matters in just a matter of years
A space where habit, status appears
The B at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye
When I come back like George, we in the 4-5
And they can play games at you, it's the aim at you
Polymania, if I owe you, I'm blowing [N] you to smithereens
Cops like to take one for your team
And I need you to remember one [Ab] thing
I came, I saw, I conquered
From record sales, sold out, conquered
Young did it to death, you gotta love it
Record companies told me I couldn't cut it
Now look at me, all stars [Abm] studded
Gone for a buck hard like I put it
All cause of shit I uttered, was [Dbm] utterly ridiculous
How sick is this?
[Abm] How sick is this?
I did everything I thought there was [Eb] a purpose
[Abm] Say that [Ab] things have to stay the same
Now that I'll ever say them at all
Gotta be that, gotta get up, get that act
Gotta wear the hat, I'll throw what's on this mat
Square circles, turn around the hurdles
I did everything I thought [Dbm] there was a purpose
Can somebody show me how to get in?
Cause I can figure out [Ab] how to get in
Can somebody show me I can [Db] see in the dark?
Can [Ab] somebody take me, I can [Db] see in the dark
Will you illuminate me out of the dark?
[B]
[Dbm] Will you illuminate me out [D] of the dark?
