Ever since I was a kid at school I messed around [Eb] with all the rules
[Ebm] _ _ Apologized [Bb] then _ realized [F] I'm not different [Fm] after [Bb] all _ _
_ In the boys' club we had it just
_ _ _ _ [Eb] Valentino's on the blast
[Ebm] My dad said [Bb] we looked ridiculous
[F] But boy we broke some [Bb] _ hearts _
In and out of jobs, running free
_ Waging war on [Eb] this _ society
[C] _ Dumb black faces [Bb] stared back at me
[F] But nothing [Fm] ever [Bb] changed _ _
Promises made in the heat of the night
_ Creep up on me [Eb] for a little god damn [Ebm] right
I wasted [Bb] all that precious time
[F] And blamed it all [Fm] on [Bb] wine
I was [Eb] only [F] joking [Bb] my dear
_ [Eb] Looking far away [F] behind [Gm] my skin
What kind [Eb] of fool [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Cm] I can get away [D] with
[C] _ [Bb] _ [G] _
[F] _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ Never found a _ compromise
_ Collected love [Eb] was like butterflies
_ [Ebm] _ Illusions off [Bb] that crap were fries
[F] Slowly we're [Bb] afraid
_ _ _ Soon baby you were good to me
_ Giving love [Eb] _ _ unselfishly
[Ebm] But you took it all [Bb] too _ seriously
[F] I guess you can't deny it
[Bb] _ I [Eb] was only [F] joking my [Bb] dear
_ [Eb] Looking far away [F]
behind [Gm] my skin
What [Eb] kind of [F] fool I [Bb] _ _ _ [Cm] can get away [D] with

Barely
Now you ask me if I'm sincere _
That's the question that [Eb] I always [Ebm] fear
_ Verse 7 [Bb] is never clear _
[F] But I'll tell you what you're [Bb] worried here _ _ _
I try to give you all you want
But giving love is [Eb] not my strongest point _
[C] If that's the case it's [Bb] pointless going on
[F] I'd rather be [Bb] alone _ _ _
Cause what I'm doing must be wrong _
_ Pouring my heart [Fm] [Eb] out in a song
[Ebm] _ Holding up for [Bb] prosperity
For [F] the whole damn [Bb] world to see _ _
_ _ Widely now I'll turn a page
Act one is over [Eb] without costume change
[Ebm] _ The principal would like [Bb] to leave this room
_ [F] The crowd don't _ [Bb] understand _ _ _
