D9 G9
My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
D9 G9
The way he de-scribed it he said I’d be better dead than live
I didn’t listen to his jive
D9 B7
I knew all along that he was all wrong
Em7
And I knew that he thought
A7 D Bm7 Em7
I was crazy but I’m not, oh, no
A7 D9 G9
My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
D9
He said I need treatment but I’m not that easily led
G9
He said I was the type that was most inclined
D9 B7
When out of his sight to be out of my mind
Em7
And he thought I was nuts
A7 D Bm7 Em7
No more ifs or ands or buts
D9 G9
They say as a child I ap-peared
D9
A little bit wild with all my cra-zy ideas
But I knew what was happening
G9

A7 D9
Now I heard little children
G9
Were sup-posed to sleep tight
D9
That’s why I got into the vodka one night
G9
My parents got frantic, didn’t know what to do
D9
But I saw some crazy scenes before I came to
B7 Em7
Now do you think I was crazy?
A7 D Bm7 Em7
I may have been only three but I was swingin’
A7 D9
They all laughed at A. Graham Bell
G9
They all laughed at Edison
D9
And also at Einstein
G9
So why should I feel sorry if they just couldn’t understand
D9
The idiomatic logic that went on in my head?
B7
I had a brain, it was insane
Em7
Oh, they used to laugh at me
A7 D7 B7
When I refused to ride on all those double-decker buses
Em7 A7 D G9 A7 B7 Em7
All be-cause there was no dri-ver at the top
A7 D9 G9
My analyst told me that I was right out of my head
D9
But I said, “Dear doc-tor, I think that it’s you instead
G9
Because I have got a thing that’s unique and new
D9 B7
To prove it I’ll have the last laugh on you
Em7 A7 D7
‘Cause in-stead of one head, I got two
And you know two heads are better than one”
