[Intro 1]
[Am][F][C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am][F][C][G][Am][F]
[C][G][Am]
[F]This would not

[Verse 1]
[G]
have happened if I hadn't [Am]missed my plane.
[F]I would've been there when the[C]y told
[G]you I'm the [Am]rat within the grain.
[F]Within this big mis[C]understanding [G]now[Am],[F][C]
I'm being [G]misunderstood.
[Am]I'm [F]thin[C]kin' someone[G]'s trying
to fu*k with [Am]me and set fire to my wood.
Well I [F]wouldn't

[Verse 2]
[C]wan[G]t you to
want to [Am]be wanted by me.
[F]I w[C]ouldn't want you [G]to worry
you'd be drowned within my sea.
[Am]I only wanted to be wonderful,
an[F]d w[C]onderful is true.
In [G]truth, I only [Am]really wanted
to [F]be [C]wanted by [G]you.

[Verse 3]
[Am]It's [F]a stupid situation
now where [C]everything goes wrong.
If [G]you [Am]can't tell if I am[F]
lying: then you do not [C]belong.
In my bed, go rest [G]your head [Am]upon the
[F]bones of a [C]bigger man.
And he can cover you with rockwool and you
[G]can close up [Am]like [F]a c[C]lam[G].[Am]

[Verse 4]
'cause I wouldn't [F]want[C]
you to want to be wanted [A]by me.
I [Am]wouldn't want you to [F]worry you'd
[C]be drowned within my sea.
[G]I only wanted to be wonderful,
and [Am]won derful is true.
In truth, I only really [F]wanted to
be wanted [G]by you.
So go play [C]with [G]your [Am]piano and write

[Verse 5]
[F]a m[C]ediocre song[G]
About this shell of mediocrity
[Am]And pretend there's nothing wrong.
I [F]never [C]thought you were
a chick[G]en [Am]sh*t:
I never thought of you at all.
Until you [F]asked me to be part of
[C]it
And now you're [G]showing
me a wall.

[Verse 6]
I wouldn't [Am]want you to want to
[G]be wanted [F]by me.
I wouldn't want you [G]to worry
you'd be drowned within my sea.
I [Am]only wanted to be wonderful
[F]an [C]d w[G]onderful is true[Am].
In truth, I only really wanted
to be wanted [F]by [C]you.
[G]In truth, I only really

[Verse 7]
[Am]wanted to
[F]be wanted by [C]you.
[G]Lada da da

[Verse 8]
[Am]etc...
[F]In truth, I only really wanted to be wanted

[Verse 9]
[C]by [G]you.
