[A]
Friday night I crashed your party, Saturday I said I'm sorry, Sunday came and trashed me [E] out again.
[Bm] I was only having fun, wasn't [G] [A] hurting [G] anyone, and [E] we all enjoyed the weekend for [A] a change.
I'm a stranded in the combat zone, I walked through bed but you stayed alone, even rode my motorcycle [E] in the rain.
And you told [Bm] me not to drive, [G] but I made it home alive, [E] so you said that only proves that [A] I've been sane.
[E] You may be right, I may [Gm] be [A] crazy,
[E] but it just may be [D] a lunatic [F#m] you're looking for.
Turn [E] out the lights, [G#] don't [A] try to save me, you may be [D] wrong, but all [E] I know is you may be [A] right.
Well, remember how I found you there, alone in your electric chair.
I told you dirty jokes until [E] you smiled.
You [B] were lonely [Bm] for a man, I [G] said take me as I am, cause [E] you might enjoy some madness [A] for a while.
Now think of all the years you tried to find someone to satisfy you, I might be as crazy as [E] you say.
If I'm [Bm] crazy then it's true, [G] that it's all because of you, [Em] and you [Am] wouldn't [E] want me any [A] other way.
[E] You may be right, [G] I may [A] be crazy, [D]
but [E] it just may be [D] a lunatic [F#] you're looking for.
[A] It's [G] too late to [E] fight, it's [D#m] too late to [A] change, you may be [D] wrong, but all [E] I know is you may [A] be right.
