Verse

Ehow sick of Aadd9me

while you're sEtanding just oAadd9utside

2ND VERSE (Same as the first)

i took to the stage

with my outrage

in the bad old days

when you were the make-me-mad guy

but the songs

they come out more slowly

now that i am the bad guy

and i say, i'm sorry i'm so crazy

I am astounded by your patience

and you say, believe it or not, baby

the joy you bring me

still outweighs it

Chorus

the first person in your life

to ever really matter

is saying the last thing

that you want to hear

and you are listening hard

through the splintering shards

of your life as it shatters

and you're standing firm

and you're staying close

and you're seeing clear

hEow sick ofAadd9 me

must you Ebe

by nA7ow?

(Slow down to finish on E)
