[Verse 1]
I read the Emscript of Unbreakable on a rainy morning
It described the state of mind that I was born in
I've Amseen a lot of monkeys on Emwalls
And B7ignore the million important calls
The Emrecord store lady wore a veil and was nice
I looked at her and she smiled twice
They were Amshooting a movie with Cameron EmD
And you B7didn't only have eyes for Emme
[Chorus]
I Amcould have Am/Cbeen aEmlone
That Amroom would Am/Chave been Emfree
AmHad Am/CI not Emknown
AmHad you not Am/Cbeen with Emme
[Verse 2]
My ring's up here on the street and I always win
Inside they're watching the mirror ball spin
But I'm Amdoing a better kind of Emdance
DesB7pite the fact that I have to wear my two pairs of Empants
Fishtown is ok, they have a big bottle
With a light that tells you when to light a candle
But the Amweed was strong, and the wind, Emtoo
And I B7felt gigantic next to Emyou
[Chorus]
I Amcould have Am/Cbeen aEmlone
That Amroom would Am/Chave been Emfree
AmHad Am/CI not Emknown
Had Amyou not Am/Cbeen with Emme

Am/C

[Verse 1]

I read the script of Unbreakable on a rainy morning

It described the state of mind that I was born in

Am Em

I've seen a lot of monkeys on walls

And ignore the million important calls

The record store lady wore a veil and was nice

I looked at her and she smiled twice

Am Em

They were shooting a movie with Cameron D

B7 Em

And you didn't only have eyes for me

[Chorus]

Am Am/C Em

I could have been alone

Am Am/C Em

That room would have been free

Am Am/C Em

Had I not known

Am Am/C Em

Had you not been with me

[Verse 2]

My ring's up here on the street and I always win

Inside they're watching the mirror ball spin

Am Em

But I'm doing a better kind of dance

B7 Em

Despite the fact that I have to wear my two pairs of pants

Fishtown is ok, they have a big bottle

With a light that tells you when to light a candle

Am Em

But the weed was strong, and the wind, too

B7 Em

And I felt gigantic next to you

[Chorus]

Am Am/C Em

I could have been alone

Am Am/C Em

That room would have been free

Am Am/C Em

Had I not known

Am Am/C Em

Had you not been with me
