 FAs I am preparing myself to say Dmfarewell to my pride againBb  
I remember how it Fwas back then:
FI'd see you light a cigarette, and then, Dmyou'd ask me to pass your asthma 
Bbinhaler.
I'd say 'Don't you ever think abouFt cancer'?
You'd say 'BbBaby, you don't know but my Dmheart is as Cstrong as a Bbdrummer'
'My Dmheart is as Cstrong as a Fdrummer'
FYou make me feel like apologising for Dmbeing like this:
do I have toBb, say I'm sorry for my Fhappiness?
FYou see it's like loving 'Graceland', it's not Dmallowed to be but we know 
it's everybody's Bbfavourite,
deep down in a plFace where, music makes you Bbhappiest.
Deep down in a Dmplace where my Cheart is a Bbdrummer,
In a Dmplace where my Cheart is a Fdrummer.
FAnd when you Dmcall me, on the telephone my Bbfingers will twist right through 
the cords
and I'll Fslide my feet up and down the wall,
but I Dmknow that I'm Cstronger than Bbyou are,
but I Dmknow that I'm Cstronger than Fyou are.
FAnd when you Dmcall me, on the telephone my Bbfingers will still twist through 
the cords
and I'll Fslide my feet up and down the wall, 
but I Dmknow that I'm Cstronger than Bbyou are
but I Dmknow that I'm Cstronger than Bbyou are.
