When Gyou would enjoy my rhymes
And Cadd9now, we still nod our heads

For Cadd9me, me to change my mind
AGbout all the things I like
And Cadd9you, you just wanted to be Gloved
Will we mDsus4ake it through?
[Pre-Chorus]
GWe've been Em7ticking like a time bomb
GI can't remember where we've come from
GWhat can I Em7say to make you Cadd9see?
