I'm [C#m] friends with the monster [B] that's under [A] my bed
Get along with [C#m] the voices [B] inside of [A] my head
You're trying [C#m] to save [B] me, stop holding [A] your breath
And you think [C#m] I'm crazy, [B] yeah, you think [A] I'm crazy, crazy
I [C#m] wanted the fame but not [B] the cover of Newsweek
[A] Oh well, guess Vegas can't be too easy
[C#m] Wanted to receive attention [B] for my music
[A] Wanted to be left alone in public, excuse me
But [C#m] wanting my cake and eat it [B] too
Wanting it both [A] ways
Fame made me a balloon
Cause my [C#m] ego inflated when I flew
See, but [B] it was confusing
Cause [A] all I wanted to do was be the Bruce Lee
A blue [C#m] flea, a fused ink
[B] Use it as a [A] tomb when I blew stink
Hit the lottery, ooh [C#m] wee
But with what I [B] gave up to get, it was [A] bittersweet
It was like winning, I used me
I'm flying [C#m] cause I think I'm getting so [B] huge
I need a shrink, I'm [A] beginning to lose sleep
One sheep, two sheep
[C#m] Going cuckoo, cuckoo is [B] cookie
But I'm actually [A] weirder than you think
Cause I'm friends with [C#m] the monster [B] that's under [A] my bed
Get along with [C#m] the [B] voices inside of my [A]
head
Keep trying [C#m] to save [B] me, stop holding [A] me up
Well that's when you think [C#m] I'm crazy
[B] Yeah, you think [A] I'm crazy
Well that's not [C#m] fair
[B] Cuckoo, [A]
cuckoo, [C#m] cuckoo, [B] cuckoo, [A] cuckoo, cuckoo
Well that's not [C#m] fair
[B] [A]
Cuckoo, [C#m] [B] cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo, [A]
cuckoo, cuckoo
Now I ain't [C#m] much of a poet
[G#m] But I know somebody once told me
To [A] seize the moment and don't squander it
Cause you never know when it all [F#] could be over
The more so [B] I keep [A] pondering
Sometimes I wonder where these thoughts [C#m] are coming from
Yeah, [F#] ponder it if you want
Cause the [A] more you can loosen your mind
The way it [E] wanders [C#m] around
I'm not a hero
[B] I think it would wander [A] north down yonder
And stumble on to Tepp and Udrin
Cause I [B] need an [A] interventionist
To intervene between me and this monster
And save me from myself and [B] all this conflict
[A] Cause of everything that I love
Killing me and I can't [C#m] conquer it
My [B] OCD's talking me [A] in the head
Keep knocking, nobody's home I'm sleepwalking
I'm just [B] relaying what the voice in my [A] head's saying
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with [C#m] the monster [B] [A] that's
Getting on with [C#m] the voices [B] inside of [A] my head
Keep trying [C#m] to save [B] me, it's got me rolling [A] over
And you think [C#m] I'm crazy, [B] yeah you think [A] I'm crazy
Well, [G] I'm not [C#m] [B] [A] so-

that's
Don't shoot [C#m] [B] the messenger, I'm just friends with [A]
[C#m] the monster that's
Call me crazy but I [B] have this this one [A] day that
I walk amongst you, a regular [C#m] civilian
But until then, [B] I'm still killed
And I'm coming [A] straight at MC's buckets
Filled them up, take [C#m] it back to the days that
[B] I'd get on a Dre track
[A] Give every kid who got played that
Bumped up [C#m] feeling and shit to say back
[B] To the kids who played [A] him
I ain't here to save the fucking children
But it's [C#m] one kid out of a [B] hundred million
Who are [A] going through a struggle
Feels it and relates that
[C#m] Great, it's K-back
[B] Buster Wilson falling [A] way back in the draft
Turned nothing into [C#m] something, still can make [B] that
Straw in the gold, [A] jump I will spin
Bumple still skin in a [C#m] haystack
[B] Maybe I need a straight cat
[A] If they stacks, I am nuts for real
But I'm okay with that
It's nothing, I'm still friends with [C#m] the
I'm friends with the monster [G#m] that's under [A] my bed
