Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][D][Bm][G][Asus4][D][Bm][G][D]

[Verse 1]
I tried [Bm]to
frame my own [G]self [D]portrait
Into a [Bm]three- minute one- act [G]play[Em]
But I'm a [Bm]carnival [G]of voices[Em]
It's [D]hard [Bm]to pin me down [G]that way
[A]Without my subconscious [D]saying
"I'm not in [Bm]love with [G]you,
But I'd be willing [Dm]to make
[D]a change.[Bm][G][D]
It's these [Bm]profound fits of sun[G]shine
That bring [F]on [Dm]sub [D]sequently
rain."
[Bm][D][G][Dm]

[Verse 2]
[G]"If I could make a suggestio[A]n"
[G]I say, 'Oh, this should be nice'
"The middle [A]ground[D]
[G]is partly sun[A]ny,[D]
[A]Now tak[F]e my good advic[E]e,
Nobody's [Eb]out here throwing r[D]ice yet
But [F]me and [Dm]the voices in[E]side of your head

[Interlude 1]
All agree"
[Eb][D][Em][D][Bm][G]

[Verse 3]
[A]And [Bm]I sa[G]y, '[A]Since we're
all here [D]talking
You think I'm [Bm]afraid of you?
[G]Well, I'm afraid [Dm]I think
[D]you're [Bm]right[G][Dm][D]
I've never been good [Bm]at crowd control
[G]You[F]r voices keep me [Dm]up all n[D]ight' 'Now,
[Bm]I'm [G]no p[Dm]sych[D]iat[G]rist[A]
Though I'm [G]known for Freudian [A]slips
[G]I'd like to thank my Id [A]and Ego
For the [Dm]roller coaster [E]trip
And if my [Eb]memory will [D]permit me
I'd like to [F]re member [Dm]to keep you [E]voices
Out of my[Eb]head'

[Outro 1]
[Eb][A][Asus4][A][Bm][G][Asus4][D]
[Bm][D][G][A][Em][D][Bm][G][D][A][D][Bm][D][G]
