[Intro]
C F C F
[Verse 1]
C F
If I could do what I want
C F
I would become an electrician
C F
I'd climb inside my ears
Dm F C
And I would rearrange the wires in my brain
F C F
A different me would be inhabiting this body
C F
I'd have two cars, a garage, a job
Dm F
And I would go to church on Sunday
C F C
A diagram of faulty circuitry
F C
Explains how I was made
F Dm
And now the engineer is listening
F C
As I voice all my complaints
F Dm F C
From an orchestra of shaking metal keeping me awake
F Dm F C
I was just wondering if there's any way that you made a mistake
[Interlude]
F C F C F Dm F
[Chorus 1]
Dm F
Because I miss you the way that I miss nicotine
Dm F
If it makes me feel better, how bad could it be?
Dm F
Well I heard there's a fix for everything
Dm F
Then why, then why, then why
C
Then why not me?
[Interlude]
F Dm F
[Verse]
C F C F
The 1st of April saw the sickening repair
C F Dm F
Wore my best shirt to the clinic decorated with a laminate name
C F C F C
No one is laughing from an audience of folding plastic chairs
F Dm F C
And I'm not fooled when you tell me that you're glad I came
F C F
Am I honest to admit or just a hypocrite?
C F Dm F C
I know I should be being optimistic but I'm doubtful I can change
F C F
Grit my teeth and try to act deserving
C F Dm
When I know there is nowhere I can hide
F C
From your humiliating grace
[Interlude]
F C F C F Dm F
[Chorus 2]
Dm
Because if you swear that it's true
F
Then I have to believe
Dm F
What I hear evangelicals say on TV
Dm F
And if there's enough left after everyone else
Dm F
Then why, then why, then why
C F
Why noooot meeeee?
[Outro]
Dm F
