The Price I Pay Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Well, [Daug]I've been
[G]staring at this lightbulb
for [Daug]over a week
[Em]My eyes are burning, my le[C]gs are weak
And that's the [G]price I pay
[D]for being a [Em]loner[D]
[Daug]Well, I could ma[G]ke a call tomorrow,
say [Daug]I'm coming home
[Em]I'm sorry baby,
I don't [C]know who to phone
And that's the [G]price I pay
[D]for being a [Em]loser[D]
[G]Each night I'm dreaming,
my [Ebaug]sheets soaking wet
And [C]faces from the past
I'd [Cm]rather forget
[G]I dream of Elvis,
I [Ebaug]dream of King Kong
It's [C]more exaggerated
and then [Cm]you come along
But that's the [G]price I pay
[D]for my [Em]imagination[D][G]
[C][D]
[Daug]Well, I've bee[Gm]n staring[G]
at strange women
who [Daug]I'll never meet
Un[Em]dress them in their mind
from my [C]head to their feet
And that's the [G]price I pay
[D]for my obses[Em]sion[D]
[Gm]Well, you can [G]get it if you want it,
you can [Daug]make it if you try
[D]You [Em]climb up any mountain
if you're [C]not afraid to die
Oh, that's the [G]price you'll pay
[D]for your anxiety[Em][C]
And that's a [G]price I pay,
[D]for my notori[Em]ety
[C]But that's a [G]price I [D]pay,
for our humanity
[Em][D][G]
[C]You[D][Daug]
