Front Row chords and lyrics - ALANIS MORISSETTE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]I know he's blood but you can
still turn him away
You don't owe him anything

[Verse 2]
Do you go to [G]the dungeon?
To find out how to make peace
With your days in the dungeon
Writing a letter to you
Didn't make me feel any more peaceful
Than how I felt when
we weren't speaking
Because I didn't cop to what I did
I can't love you
'Cause we're supposed to have
professional boundaries
I'd like you to be schooled
and in awe
As though you were kissed
by god full on the lips

[Verse 3]
I'm in the [G]front row (I'm too
tired to recount the unpleasantries)
[Em]The front row with pop[D]corn (One by
one minute I want to banish you)
(The next I [C]want to be
on a deserted island with you)
I get to [G]see you (along with my
three favorite CDs)
See [Em]you (ambivalent yet in y[D]our)
Close up (bed we've [Em]yet
to acknowledge [C]what really [G]happened)

[Verse 4]
Slid into [G]the ditch
I have this overwhelming loss of ambition
We said let's name thirty good reasons
Why we shouldn't be together
I started by saying things like "you smoke"
"you live in new jersey"
You started saying things like
"you belong to the world"
All of which could have been easily refuted
But the conversation was hypothetical
I am totally short of breath for you
Why can't you shut your stuff off

[Verse 5]
I'm in [G]the front row (and I laughed until
my lungs hurt)
[Em]The front row with [D]popcorn [G](I love
[C]how you bust my chops)
(You don't always
feel seen sometimes you feel erasable)
I get to [G]see you (unfortunately I cannot
reciprocate)
See [Em]you (in my current state)
Close up (I think we
should be careful of)
(How much [D]time
[C]we spend [G]together)

[Verse 6]
For a while while [G]I'm speaking
You know how much you hate
to be interrupted
Maybe spend some time alone
Fill up your proverbial cup so
That it doesn't always have
to be about you
I've been wanting your undivided attention
I like the fact that you're nothing like me
Are you not burdened by
the lack of
Perspective people have of your
charmed life seemingly

[Verse 7]
I'm in the [G]front row (you never meant to
be ungrateful)
[Em]The front row with [D]popcorn
(or held up to be whipped)
(Or wept [G]for certainly [D]not analyzed,
[C]prodded at more ways than one)
I get to [G]see you (apparently you've
been misrepresented)
See you (dealing with the [Em]con
cept of arrows being)
[D]Close up (slung towards your
[C]outrageous fortune)

[Verse 8]
Hey, I'm not [G]mad at you guardian
I'm mad at myself for
spending so much time
With you and your Jekyll
and Hydeness
I'm glad I figuratively
slapped you on the wrist
You laughed a wicked laugh
And said "come here let

[Verse 9]
me clip your wings!"
[G]I know he's blood but you can
still turn him away

[Verse 10]
You don't owe him anything
[G]"Raise the roof," he yelled
"Yeah, raise the roof,"
I yelled back
Unfortunately you needed a health
scare to reprioritize
No thanks to the soap box
Having me rile against them
Won't make an ounce of difference

[Verse 11]
I'm in [G]the front row (oh, the things
I've done for you)
[Em]The front row with [D]popcorn
(many a stitch a friend)
(A man's been left [C]for you, oh,
the books I've read for you)
(The tongues I've bitten for you)
I get to [G]see you (many a
new city for you)
See [Em]you (many a risk taken for you)
[D]Close up (not a single regret)

[Outro 1]
[C][G]
