VERSE 1

                        E   C 

You’ll be accepting my apology

                      G      C

For taking things too seriously.

                     G              A

Sometimes I’m old enough to keep routines,

              B*              C*

Sometimes I’m child enough to scream

          E                 C

For everything. I broke in two.

                      G

You’re barely missing me.

            C

I’m missing you

                   G

And everything you do.

         A             B*          C*

I really do.  I really do.  Sure I do.



PRE CHORUS

B                    C     

My once photographic memory,

G                           Em             C

For recollections’s sake is failing me.



I can’t remember for the life of me.



CHORUS

G               B

Sometimes I can think to recite

Em           C

Words that I read and rewrite.

B                                     C

My pens paint people that I’ve proven wrong.

G               B

Sometimes I can think to recite

Em           C

Words that I read and rewrite.

B                                     C

My pens paint people that I’ve proven wrong,

Em      C

We move on.



VERSE 2

E                 C

Get a job where I tell

          G                   C

All of my accounts of someone else.

                    G                    A

I’m quick enough to judge that they were wrong

            B*          C*       

And that we knew it all along.

       E                C

Sing a long long-winded song.

           G              C       B   C

I would be content to hum along.  Humm



BRIDGE

     G                                   C

If I state that my fingers know where to show

                          Em

What everyone should have known, 

                   G

I’ll let it go. 

                    C

Hopefully you’ll forget

                        Em

Any words that I put in print.

                C

My luck, you’ll change

                             C

Have strength enough to walk away.



CHORUS x2



[END:                    G

     read and rewrite it wrong]
