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