Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

(acoustic 12-string [2X]:)

* 1st repeat ** 2nd repeat

Verse 1

If you could only see me

And know exactly who I am

You wouldn't want to be me

Why I can assure you of that

Verse 2

I'm not the guy to run with

'Cause I'll throw you off the line

I'll break you and destroy you

Given time

Chorus

He's King Midas with a curse

He's King Midas in reverse

He's King Midas with a curse

He's King Midas in reverse

Verse 3

It's plain to see it's hopeless

Going on the way we are

So even though I lose you

We'd be better off by far

Bridge

He's not the man to hold your trust

Everything he touches turns to dust in his hands

Nothing he can do is right

He'd even like to sleep at night, but he can't

[orchestral break over chorus chords]

Verse 4

I wish someone would find me

And help me gain control

Before I lose my reason

And my soul

[repeat chorus to fade]
