AmCuttin' the page
CThings are looking GupC  
That time is Fout of my Fmaj7range
One drink's what Fled to the Fmaj7changeG  
AmOut on my own
CKicked out of the GshowC  
I'll take what's Fmine and I'll Fmaj7go
It's Ejust like my old E7brothers used to Amsay
[Chorus]
AmThere's somethin' C7wrong with this Fmaj7world
I Fmfeel it coming Amon
And contradC7ictions take their Fmaj7toll
Is Fmthat where we went Amwrong?
And somethin' C7struck me
It struck me Fmaj7deep
It Fmknocked me to my Amknees

And EI can't keep it E7straight inside my head

And contradC7ictions take their Fmaj7toll
Is Fmthat where we went Amwrong?
And somethin' C7struck me
