Ebm                 C#
There is a boy in a band 
                       Ebm
who is friends with my ex-boyfriends
                    C#
high school friend, Christian
            Ebm         C#
A very nice gentleman.
Ebm            
He seems to know me
    C#
but I can't remember him
Fm      
good god forgive me,
    C#                F#   C#
I'm out of my element

      C#                     Fm
And I can't seem to them all straight
         C#                    Ab
I've forgotten which people I like
                   Eb
and which people I hate and I'm waiting
    C#                      Fm
for someone to shake me and say:
Fm               C#           Fm
Hey bitch, your wish is my command.
Fm             C#         
Just smile and nod we'll under
F#                      C#
Standing infront of the sink 
                     F#
I believe I've been tricked 
                  C#                     F#        C#
into thinking I'm sick when I'm actually generous.

F#                   C#
No use expecting the worst
                      F#
let the thing run its course
                        C#
and in time you'll look back thinking
         F#         C#
God, how hilarious!

And I can't seem to keep them all straight.
      C#                           Ab
I've forgotten which ones I should skip
                        Eb
and which ones I should take and I'm waiting
    C#                      Fm
for someone to shake me and say:
Fm               C#
Hey bitch! Don't quit
              Fm
You're almost there.
             C#               F#

go back to bed


instrumental: Fm  C# 

F#                    C#
There is a man on the phone
                    F#
Who's convinced I'm alone
             C#         
And I try to convince the poor guy 
          F#             C#
that it's way too late.
F#
He seems to like me 
      C#                    Fm
but I can't relate I would like to get closer
     C#                            F#    C#
But Christ all the time it takes.

      C#                        Fm
And I can't seem to keep myself straight
     C#                          Ab
I've forgotten which feelings to show
                      Eb  
and which feelings to fake and I'm waiting
    C#                      Fm
for someone to shake me and say:
Fm              C#
HEY BITCH! Nice tits!
                 Fm
You're broke but then 
               C#
you're rich in love.
                F#
You're great in bed!
                C#
You'll see the world 
                 F#
You'll knock 'em dead.
            C#                      F#
And all the thick books that you've read
               C#             Fm            F#
will count for nothing in the end.
