[Intro 1]
[C]
[F][Em][G][C]
[F][Em][G][C]

[Verse 1]
And you [F]measure for [Em]wealth
by the [G]things you can [C]hold
And you [F]measure for [Em]love
by the [G]sweet things you're [C]told
And you [C]live in the [F]past
or a [Em]dream that you're [G]in
And [C]your selfish[F]ness is your [G]cardinal [C]sin

[Verse 2]
And you [F]want to be [Em]held
with [G]highest [C]regard
It [F]delights you so [Em]much if he's [G]trying so [C]hard
And you [C]try to con[F]ceal your [Em]ordinary [G]ways
With a [C]smile or a [F]shrug or some [G]stolen [C]cliché

[Chorus 1]
[F]But don't you [G]under[C]stand
[F]And don't [G]you look [C]about
[F]I'm trying to [G]take [C]nothing from you
So [F]why should you [Em]act so put o[G]ut, for [C]me
[F][Em][G][C]

[Verse 3]
'Cause [F]emotionally,[Em]
you're the [G]same basic [C]trip
And you [F]know that I [Em]know
of the [G]times that you've [C]slipped
So don't [C]try to [F]impress me
You're [Em]just pins and [G]paint
And [C]don't try to [F]charm me
With [G]things that you [C]ain't

[Verse 4]
And don't [F]try to [Em]enchant me
with your [G]manner of [C]dress
'Cause a [F]monkey in [Em]silk
is a [G]monkey no [C]less
So [C]measure for [F]measure,
[Em]reflect on my [G]said
And [C]when I won't [F]see 'ya
[G]then measure it [C]dead

[Chorus 2]
[F]'Cause don't you [G]under[C]stand
[F]And don't [G]you look [C]about
[F]I'm trying to [G]take [C]nothing from you
So [F]why should you [Em]act so put o[G]ut,
And [F]sit there and [Em]wonder in [G]doubt

[Outro 1]
(for [C]me)[F][Em][G]
[repeat and fade]
