Hear you sitting in your high back chair
Wonder how the view is from there
You wouldn't know, cause I like to say
[E] Up on the floor, [B] yeah up on the floor
[E] We feel like we could play
Let's pretend that we are the same
But you will have to look much closer
[E] Than you do, [B] closer than you do
[E] And I'm far too tired to [B] stay here anymore
[B] And I don't care what you think anyway
Cause I think you were wrong about [E] me
What if you were, [B] what if you were
[E] And what if I was out of story
[C#m] What if [A] I'm old and dainty
[E] What if I'm [B] an ocean
Thought [C#m] too shallow, [A] musty deep
[E] What if I'm [B] the kindest
[C#m] Something you [A] may not believe in
[C#] What if I'm a [B] siren
Singing [C#m] a duet [A] to sleep
[D]
[Bm] I [E]
know you've got to figure it out
Tell me what I am all about
And I just might wanna think too
I'll do it about you, [B] maybe about [E] you
I'm the end of your telescope
I don't change just to suit your vision
Cause I am bound by a rainbow
Around my hands, [D#m] dot around my hands
[E] And you close your eyes when I [B] say I'm breaking free
[E] And put your hands [B] over both your ears
[A] Because you cannot stand [B] to believe I'm not
[A] The perfect girl you thought
Well, [B] what have I got to [E] lose
What if I'm a gleaming [C#m] willow
Laughing tears [A] upon [E] my pillow
What if I'm [B] a socialite
[C#m] Who wants to be [A] alone
[E] What if I'm [B] toothless, you may agree
[C#m] What if I'm [A] a sinless shepherd
[E] What if [B] I'm an angel
Without [C#m] wings to take me [A] home
[D] [Bm]
[E] [C#m]
[A] [E] Never [B] will, [C#m] never will
I'm [A]
outside your [E] picture frame
[B] And the glass is breaking [C#] now
You [A] can't see [E] me
Never [B] will, never [E] will
[A] [A] In your mother's [E] seat
What if [B] I'm a crowded desk
[C#m] Too much pain with [E] little measure
What if I'm [B] the nicest gift
[E] You'd never want [A] to go
[E] What if I don't [B] know who I [C#m] am
Well, that [A] must be
To
[E] find out who [B] and you have
Be [C#m] sure to let [A] me know
[E] What if [B] I'm a slow stoner
[C#m] What if I'm a [A] woman long too late
[E] What if I'm [B] an ocean
[C#m] Caught in a shadow, lost [A] beneath
[E] What if [B] I'm a mindless demon
[C#m] Something you may [E] not believe
What if I'm a [B]
