[E]
[D] I need [Em] education, [Bm] it was somewhere [E] in between.
[D] You gave [G#] me some sound [B] advice, but I [F#] wasn't listening.
[C#] After we had [E] cast out, I couldn't tell you how you'd fall.
Well, I'm not sure if [Am] I'd like to rest on the [Em] shed all the while.
[D] [G]
[Em] Not quite conversation, [G] it was somewhere in [Em] between.
[Bm] You said [G] everything is dark, now listen [D] patiently.
[G] All these strong components, losing monkeys the whole time.
We could not help from flinging shit and I'm harder to send time.
[D] [G]
Our instincts they were cringing about [F#] how we lived our lives.
[G] Didn't see we'd lived enough to even [D] get to die.
[Em] All these dance distractions, so beautifully [D] complex.
[F#] Well, [G] I love life surprises so much, I don't want to [F#] know what's up.
[G] [D] [Bm]
[G] [Bm]
[C] [E] Stumble and shout, and he said, I don't know.
[B] Couldn't really [Em] care, hardly if you hardly cared.
You know, [D] stumble and [Em] do the stumble, do the I [Bm] very well.
Well, [G] hardly [F#] education, it was somewhere in [E] between.
Oh, I hit the root, but I had eight for my C-list.

[Em] [D] [Em]
[B] [Bm] [G]
[A] [G]
Hardly education, all them books I didn't read.
They just sat there on my shelf looking much smarter than me.
Good old Mr.
Dullness, he knew the whole damn time.
[E] There'd always be antiques from West End, [C#] someone [D] in the fire.
Stumble [Em] and shout, and he said, [D] I don't know.
I [E] don't know, couldn't [A#] really [A] care, hardly [D] if you hardly cared.
You know, stumble and [Am] do the stumble, do the [Em] I very well.
Stumble [G] and do the stumble, do the I don't know.
And it was stumble and do the [Bm] stumble, do the I don't know.
[G] Couldn't really care, hardly if you [Bm] hardly cared.
You [Em] know, [G] stumble and do the stumble, do the I [D] very [G] well.
[Em] Stumble [G] and do the stumble, do the [B] I very [G] well.
Stumble and do the stumble, do the [D] I very well.
