[Verse]
D
I was chewin’ gum for somethin’ to do
    G                        F
The blinds were being pulled down on the dew
D
Inside out of love, what a laugh,
                  G    C
I was looking for you
[Verse]
    D
The saxophones started blowin’ me down
      G
I was buried in sound
    F                          D
And taxi cabs were driving me around
       G                 C                D
To the handshake drugs I bought downtown
       G                 F                D D G C
To the handshake drugs I bought downtown
[Verse]
          D
They were translating poorly, I felt like a clown
  G                     F
I looked like someone I used to know
       D
I felt alright
         G                   C
And if I ever was my self, I wasn't that night

I believe that's the only way for me
   D                                 G   C
To be exactly    what you want me to be

Oh, it’s okay for you to say what you want from me
