Biography:
Marcy Playground is an American alternative rock and post-grunge band. Named for the formative location in lead singer John Wozniak's childhood (the Marcy Open grade school in Minneapolis, Minnesota), Marcy Playground emerged in the late 90s. They had been influenced heavily by Kurt Cobain and his band Nirvana. The influence is quite clear on Marcy Playground's self-titled album, with songs like The Shadow of Seattle and Saint Joe On The School Bus.

Verse : E G A C (Open Chords)
Chorus: B5 A5 G5 F#5
Verse 1:
E G A
You're so complicated
C E G A
It takes prophets, poets, sages
C E G A C E G A C
To decipher everything you say and do
I'm so scattered, flattered
You would brave my clutter
Utterly, enthusiastically in love with you
Chorus 1:
B5 A5 G5 F#5
Yo-o-ou are spe-cial
B5 A5 G5 F#5
And in your arms I'm special... too
(On the word "too" retun to the verse chord
pattern with the main riff played over it)
Verse 2:
You and I believe in one belief
That covers toxic lovers
You and I are prone to insanity
Glory to the king of Ritalin
A queen who is impulse driven
Requisites for you to marry me
Chorus 2:
You are gorgeous
And in your arms I'm gorgeous... too
