VERSE 1:

Em D/F# G*
And all the awkward ways
Em D/F# G*
that you recoil when I get close
Em D/F# G*
And oh, the awful grin
Em D/F# G*
that greets me when I'm all alone
VERSE 2:
 
 --------

Em D/F# G*
So down on hands and knees,
Em D/F# G*
choking, gasping, dripping spit
Em D/F# G*
I just can't make good
Em D/F# G*
on any of these promises
CHORUS:
 
 -------

[Em] Then he asked me,[Bm] "what does that mean?"
[Csus2] What's another [G]word for desperate?
[Em] Repetition [Bm]makes an impression
[Csus2] What's another [G]word for desperate?
Em D/F# G* Em D/F# G*
I won't be around here for too very long
VERSE 3:
 
 --------

Em D/F# G*
So tip the bottle back,
Em D/F# G*
bubble foam, and watch it break

We can all be sure
Em D/F# G*
something awful's coming this way

 --------

Em D/F# G*
So take this medicine

and measure doses, take your time

'cause they'll tear into you

They will, they will, they will, they will

 ------

Em D/F# G* (x2)
[Em]Take it apart and [D/F#]let it all go
G*
Holdin' it back it's all just so...
[Em]Why did I care? [D/F#]How did it go?
G*
Wait for a while and I guess that
Em D/F# G* Em D/F# G*
I won't be around here for too very long (x2)
