Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

There ought to be a town somewhere named for how I feel

Yeah I could be the mayor down there and say welcome to Sorryville

It wouldn't be on a map nowhere you might say that it don't exist

But if you make enough wrong turns it'd be hard to miss

There ought to be a bridge somewhere they could dedicate to me

I'd probably come to the ceremony with a can of gasoline

Walk on over to the other side and there I'd light a match

And sit and stare through the smoke and flames

Wondering how I'm gonna get back...

(chorus)

Why do I do the things I do

Was I born this way am I a self made fool

I shoot the lights and I curse the dark

I need your love but I break your heart...

And I know the words that'll bring you back

But I don't say nothing as I watch you pack

I had to work to be the jerk I've come to be

It ain't easy being me

There ought to be a sideshow act for freaks like me

Yeah I could be the star of the show with my name on the marquee

In a room with a big red button that says danger do not touch

Twice a day I'd mash it down and you could watch me self-distruct

(repeat chorus)
