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

You always say you do.
