[Verse]
AbThere ought to be a town somewhere
FmNamed for how EbI  fDbeel
AbYea I could be the Mayor dowm there
And say Fmwelcome to EbSorryvilDble
AbIt wouldn't be on a map nowhere
You might Fmsay it that it Ebdon't eDbxist
BbBut if you make enough wrong turns
DbIt'd be hard to Ebmiss
AbThere ought to be a bridge somewhere
They could dFmedicaEbte to Dbme
AbI'd probably come to the ceremony
With a Fmcan of EbgasoDbline
AbWalk on over to the other side
And Fmthere I'd Eblight a maDbtch
BbAnd sit and stare through the smoke and the flames
DbWondering how I'm ever gonna get Ebback
DbWhy do I do the Abthings I do
Was I Bbmborn this way am I am a Fmself made fool
DbI shoot the lights and Abcurse the dark
BbmI need your love but I Fmbreak your heart
And I Dbknow the words that'll bAbring you back
But I Bbmdon't say nothing as I Fmwatch you pack
I Dbhad to work to be the Abjerk I've come to Bbbe
DbIt ain't Ebeasy being Abme
AbOught to be a side show act for FmfreakEbs like Dbme
AbYea I could be the the star of the show
With my Fmname on the EbmarqDbuee
AbIn a room witha big red button that says Fmdanger Ebdo not toDbuch
BbAnd twice a day  I'd mash it down
DbAnd you could watch me  self Ebdestruct
DbWhy do I do the Abthings I do
Was I Bbmborn this way am I am a Fmself made fool
DbI shoot the lights and Abcurse the dark
BbmI need your love but I Fmbreak your heart
And I Dbknow the words that'll Abbring you back
But I Bbmdon't say nothing as I Fmwatch you pack
I Dbhad to work to be the Abjerk I've come to Bbbe
DbIt ain't Ebeasy being Abme

And say welcome to Sorryville

It wouldn't be on a map nowhere

It'd be hard to miss

There ought to be a bridge somewhere

Fm Eb Db

They could dedicate to me

I'd probably come to the ceremony

With a can of gasoline

Walk on over to the other side

And sit and stare through the smoke and the flames

Wondering how I'm ever gonna get back

Ought to be a side show act for freaks like me

Yea I could be the the star of the show

Fm Eb Db

With my name on the marquee

In a room witha big red button that says danger do not touch

And twice a day I'd mash it down

Db Eb

And you could watch me self destruct

Why do I do the things I do
