[Verse]
G F
Thought I saw you at an unmarked crossing
C G
Picking flowers at the edge of a lane
There was dust on my windshield
F
I was looking in the mirror
C G
I was almost hit by a train
F
Later on at a four-way stop
C G
I forgot to take my turn
I was thinking you were right
F
And we had nothing left
C G
Somebody blew their horn
[Chorus]
I'm dangerous
F
I'm dangerous
C
I'm dangerous
G
To myself
[Verse]
F
Yesterday I was out on the bluffs
C G
Over the ocean blue
There was a girl swimming
F
Splashing in the water
C G
She sure did look like you
F
Before I knew it I was over the edge
C G
Somebody threw me a line
Pulled me to safety
F
Said, "Man are you crazy?"
C G
I said, "No, I've lost my mind"
[Chorus]
I'm dangerous
F
I'm dangerous
C
I'm dangerous
G
To myself
[Break]

[Verse]
F
So darling if you're thinking you need a project
C G
You might want to lend a hand
I'm living on the corner
F
Of Stupidity and Recklessness
C G
I'm a dangerous man
[Chorus]
I'm dangerous
F
I'm dangerous
C
I'm dangerous
G
To myself
[Chorus]
I'm dangerous
