[Verse]
A# Dm
my friend has problems with winter and autumn
A# Dm
they give him prescriptions they shine bright lights on him
A# Dm
they say its genetic they say he cant help it
A# Dm
they say you can catch it - but sometimes you're born with it
A# Dm
my friend has blight he gets shakes in the night
A# Dm
and they say there is no way that they could have caught it in
A# Dm
time takes its toll on him it is traditional
A# Dm
it is inherited predisposition
Gm A A#

[Chorus]

Gm
but just don't tell my family
A#
they'd never forgive me
F
they’ll say that i'm crazy
Eb
but they would say anything if it would
Gm A# F Eb
