VERSE 1
E C
You’ll be accepting my apology
G C
For taking things too seriously.
G A
Sometimes I’m old enough to keep routines,
B* C*
Sometimes I’m child enough to scream
E C
For everything. I broke in two.
G
You’re barely missing me.
C
I’m missing you
G
And everything you do.
A B* C*
I really do. I really do. Sure I do.
PRE CHORUS
B C
My once photographic memory,
G Em C
For recollections’s sake is failing me.
I can’t remember for the life of me.
CHORUS
G B
Sometimes I can think to recite
Em C
Words that I read and rewrite.
B C
My pens paint people that I’ve proven wrong.
G B
Sometimes I can think to recite
Em C
Words that I read and rewrite.
B C
My pens paint people that I’ve proven wrong,
Em C
We move on.
VERSE 2
E C
Get a job where I tell
G C
All of my accounts of someone else.
G A
I’m quick enough to judge that they were wrong
B* C*
And that we knew it all along.
E C
Sing a long long-winded song.
G C B C
I would be content to hum along. Humm
BRIDGE
G C
If I state that my fingers know where to show
Em
What everyone should have known,
G
I’ll let it go.
C
Hopefully you’ll forget
Em
Any words that I put in print.
C
My luck, you’ll change
C
Have strength enough to walk away.
CHORUS x2
