Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was choking on a cornflake, You said “Have some toast instead”
Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was sleeping maybe three hours, You said “You should get to bed”
Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was waiting at the church door, For the minister to show
Cm Bb Gm Ab Gm Fm
I was looking at the new year, You said “Walk before you crawl”
Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was feeling like a loser, You said “Hey, you’ve still got me”
Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was feeling pretty lonely, You said “You wanted to be free”
Cm Bb Gm Ab
I was looking for a good time, You said “Let the good times start”
Cm Bb Gm Ab Gm Fm
With a quiver of your eyelid, You took on someone else’s part
Eb Ab Eb
But what about me, I don’t really see
Ab Eb Ab
How things will improve, If all you want is to stay
Maybe I’m a little greedy
You said “Think before you speak”
Sometimes I’m a little seedy
You said “Everyone is weak”
Now I feel a little better
Is there something I can do?
But I never heard the answer
I never had a clue
Eb Ab Eb
But what about me, I don’t really see
Ab Eb Ab
How things will improve, If all you want is to stay
Fm Gm
The lights are out in the house tonight
Ab Eb Bb
And I creep around and I’m creeping to your head
Ab Cm
All you wanted to stay loose.
There’s a little echo calling
Like a miner trapped inside
If I tell her of this moment
She will in me doubts confide
And she’s on me like a blanket
Like a stalk of wilting grass
I’m not sure about her motives
I’m not sure about her past
But my faith is like a bullet
My belief is like a bolt
The only thing that lets me sleep at night
A little carriage of the soul
If it starts a little bleaker
Then the year may yet be gold
Happiness is not for keeping
Happiness is not my goal
