[C]
[F] [Bb]
[Gm] [C]
[F] They've been saying, so [D] sophisticated They're [F] complaining, oh, they're [D] hating
You [F] are saying, all the words [Dm] I'm dreaming Said after [C] me
They [F] feel blamed, crucified [D] and shame us We [F] can't help it, if we offer [Dm] problems
We [F] are trying hard to get [D] your attention Climbing up [C] your wall, [Em] climbing up your wall
[Gm] Oh, Lord, there's another time [C] I think of me, you think of her
[F] And it don't make sense, you try to hide [Bb] But there's no right thing, without a recoup
And [Gm] you do something wrong, you say it's right [C] And they don't know how you could ever do it

No more [F] asking questions or [Dm] excuses [C] Information's still [Em] everywhere
[Gm] Oh, Lord, there's another time [C] I think of me, you think of her
[F] And it don't make sense, you try to hide But [Bb] there's no right thing, without a recoup

[F] Cause you were good to you, you wanted to But [Bb] then you wanted to do the same as you
[Gm] I don't, [C] I don't let it [F] stay I'm [Bb] stuck inside your [Gm] wall

[C] wall
[F] [G] It's not always
[Bb] [Gm] I did it, [C] I did it right [F] from the top
I'm living [Bb] out the night
[Gm]
[C] [F]
[Bb] [Gm]
[C]

[G] One [C]
[Am] shot [Dm] is never enough I'm just [G] waiting for us [C] to go in [Am] circles
Lifetime [Dm] for you, my star
[C] [Em]
