[Verse]
Ei desire to Amtumble
Fi walk through the CgarC/Bden
Ei don't speak well i Ammumble
Fto life's little CtraC/Bgedy
Eif you touch me i Amcrumble
Fthis song's from the Cwishing you C/Bwell
Enot a boob or a Ambungle
Fjust another Cbutt C/Bto sniff
[Interlude]
Fhalf our lives Emsurmise
Cfor only you to Emdecipher
Four reasons are Gquite Amtame
Fone by one we Emdie
Cand our secrets Emdie within us
Fthere's no one Gleft to Cblame
[Chorus]
Cshame Gon Fme, Cshame Gon Fyou
[Verse]
EScratchy cheeks and an Amearring
FI scurry to find the CcameC/Bra
EHe's not angry he's Amseething
FMy pictures always tCurn C/Bout wrong
EHe's not crying he's Amteething
FThe pains of growing are Cgoing C/Bfine
EThere's some spit on the Amceiling
FPretty soon it's Cgoing to C/Bdrop
[Interlude]
FIn the bed you Emlay
CPraying for sleep and it Emnever comes
FIt never Gworks that Amway
FAll the rest is Emdone
CAll you really can do is just Emsit up
FAnd start a Gbrand new Cday
[Chorus]
Cshame Gon Fme, Cshame Gon Fyou
