poetry has no place for a heart that's a whore
C
and i'm young and i'm strong
C
but i feel old and tired
C
over fired
and i've been poked and stoked
C
it's all smoke, there's no more fire
D
only desire
Am
for you, whoever you are
C
for you, whoever you are
C C
you say my time here has been some sort of joke
C
that i've been messing around
C
some sort of incubating period
C
for when i really come around
Am
but i'm cracking up
D
and you have no idea
Am C
no idea how it feels to be on your own
Am
in your own home
C
with the fucking phone
Am
and the mother of gloom
C
in your bedroom
Am
standing over your head
D
with her hand in your head
C
with her hand in your head
C
i will not pretend
C
i will not put on a smile
C
i will not say i'm alright for you
D
when all i wanted was to be good
Am
to do everything in truth
C
to do everything in truth
C C
oh i wish, i wish, i wish i was born a man
C C
so i could learn how to stand up for myself
C
like those guys with guitars
C
i've been watching in bars
C C
who've been stamping their feet to a different beat
D C
to a different beat, to a different beat
C C
i will not pretend
C
i will not put on a smile
C
i will not say i'm alright for you
D
when all i wanted was to be good
Am
to do everything in truth
C
to do everything in truth
C C
you bloody motherfucking asshole
C C
you bloody motherfucking asshole
C C
you bloody motherfucking asshole
C C
you bloody motherfucking asshole
C C C
you bloody motherfucking asshole
C
you bloody
C C
i will not pretend
C
i will not put on a smile
C
i will not say i'm alright for you
D
for you, whoever you are
C
for you, whoever you are
C
for you, whoever you are
