[Verse 1]
An[D]d I'm frustrated with myself
But I can't change
I don't want to [G]be [D]me anymore
And all of the tics
& tocs & clicks of clocks
That tell [A]the [D]time tell me
this [G]is just [D]a phase

[Verse 2]
[D]
An[Bm]d everything every day
That's been scraping away
[A]At the side of my brain
Can't [D]come to form a thought,
ex[Bm]cept...
[A][D]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]And all the thoughts I think
I've saved
Here for days that re[A]main
Just keep eating away
And [D]I still can't sleep,

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 4]
[D]Why can't you tell [A]me
[D]what I wanna hear
To [F#m]help me get some r[A]est

[Verse 5]
Oh my darling dear?
[Bm]The[G][Em][Bm][G][D]
songs of the birds
Don't [Bm]bring me calmness no [F#m]more
[D]Oh no,[A] no they don't sin[G]g

[Verse 6]
[Em]An d[D] none of the girls[Bm]
seem to think you're cool
It's [F#m]probably because you
[A]smell [D]bad
[G][Em][G][D]

[Verse 7]
A skin dis[Bm]ease won't get you
Nowhere these [F#m]days
It's true, it's [A]sad but true

[Verse 8]
[G]An [Em]d eve[A]ry[D]thing
[Bm]every day
[A]That's been [F#m]scraping away
[A]At the [D]side of my brain
Can't come to form a thought

[Verse 9]
And [Bm]all of the thoughts
I think I've saved
[A]Here for days that remain
Just keep [D]eating away
And I still can't sleep [Bm]I[A][F#m]
[D][Bm][A]

[Verse 10]
[D]We're going to make plans
We have plans to make plans
We're going to do it right
We've locked it in our
[Em]sigh[D]ts[G][D]
I'll la-dee-da & they they
can dum-dee-day
We'll We'll We'll tra-la-la [A]all all all
night and day we'll go [G]far

[Verse 11]
[G]An [Em]d if [D]I write en[Bm]ough
And [G]think about [A]it it'll [D]happen
It's [Bm]not as tough as mom[G] said
As [A]it so [D]happens

[Verse 12]
[D]
Your [Bm]analyst lied to [A]you when
She told you [D]the truth
About [Bm]boys, fear, open sores
And [A]things that are simple
Like opening door[D]s

[Verse 13]
An[Bm]d all the thoughts I
think I've [D]saved here
For days that re[A]main
Just eat eat eat [D]away[Bm]
[A]An [F#m]d I[D][Bm][A][F#m]
