I arrive at [C#] the clinic and walk to the [A] front door.

My [C#m] blood within an atom is [Bm] now two [C#m] weeks.

I try to give [C#] myself a risk [Cm] assessment.
The way [G#] to do what can really [B] annoy you.
Every single [C#m] day is more [Fm] paranoid.
I'm [D#m] reading about how with your [F] strength needed some [C#] behavior.
I must [F] admit who I [C#] slept with and who they [F#] slept with.
Who they who they who they who they [A#m] sleep with.
The Bible is life and immortality.
That's the first thing I do from HIV.
[F] I have [C#m] a cry [C#] and tell my mom.
Get on the phone, call my past [F] lovers.
I never thought [C#] about infecting [F] love.

[F] Will my [C#m] whole life have to [F] change?
Will my [C#] whole life remain the [E] same?
Sometimes [C#] it makes me want to [A] shout.
All these [C#] things too hard to think [F] about.
A day to [C#m] laugh, a day to [E] cry.

Till I [C#] find out I may [A#] wonder but I'm not going to live my life six feet [D#] under.
Because I'm not going [C#] to live my
[F] [C#] [B] [C#]
