F Gm F Gm Sweet talking my way through another funny day F Gm F I'm not here in the first place, I've been replaced Gm Haven't quite met this new self of mine, F Gm tell me it'll all be fine F Gm Tell me I don't need to say the lines Chorus: F Am Dm Gm C I'm fine getting stoned alone, with all of this time Gm C7 C Maybe I'll finally be mine Dressing myself for the day, like I'm on my way to the grand parade I catch my eye in the mirror and smile back at myself Opened up some boxes that are filled with pieces of me All of those years trying to squeeze into boxes that didn't fit all of me Chorus: I realize what it all means when I'm looking into mother's eyes I'm looking into mother's eyes F Gm I'm sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm I don't mean to sit here so much of the time F Gm Tears rolling, I'm shaking, but I'm fine F Gm I'll be running into you all the time F Am Gm I want you, but I don't want you to be mine F Am Gm I want you, but I don't want you to be mine F Gm Feels like the paradox of my life F Gm Feels like I'll get there one step at a time F Am Gm We've been balancing on the finest line Loving you's the cure and the crime Loving you's the cure and the crime The words are there, they're knocking at our teeth I'm feeling bare and hot head to feet I've got nowhere to go and no one to meet F Gm I see it now, I see my heart beat F Gm I see it now, I see what I need F Gm To be sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm To be sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind F Gm Sitting in the corner of my mind You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C C7 Dm F Gm Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
