You started a fire
D F#m
That was never supposed to burn out
G A
You started a band
D F#m
That was cool for a while, but it turned pretty bland
G A
I started a fight
D F#m
With a neighbor next door and his pesky wife
G A
You started a job
D F#m
That you hate when you’re sober, and hate even more when you’re not.
G A
And I know, you hate me too;
G A D A Bm A G
You always say you do.
G A D
You moved to Japan
D F#m
Thought a clean bill of health and a camera could show you the plan
G A
I bought a bird
D F#m
That repeats what I say, but, “I’m lonely” is all that he’s heard.
G A
You found a guy
D F#m
That is clearly the opposite of me, with a black motorbike
G A
I dicked around
D F#m
But it’s just like a movie whose picture is off with the sound.
G A
And I know, you hate me too;
G A D A Bm A G
You always say you do.
G A D
You started to write
D F#m
It was subtle at first, but the danger was clearly inside
G A
I don’t reply
D F#m
Due to lack of an ego, and laziness, it cuts like a knife
G A
You say that you’re good
D F#m
Had a baby with biker, and named him “Forest Whitaker”
G A
I’m laying low
D F#m
On the probable chance you convince me to give him a home
G A
And I know, you hate me too;
G A D A Bm A G
You always say you do.
G A D
And I know, you hate me too;
G A D A Bm A G
You always say you do.
G A D
