    B
I know I'm pathetic
I knew when she said it
   F#                     E
A loser a bum's what she called
me when I drove her home
B
There's no more waiting
and sure no more wasting
     F#
I've done all I can but she
  E
still wants to be left alone
B
You got you got you
               F#
got to help me out
                  E
And I'll try not to argue
B
No one no one no
                 F#
one likes a drop out
              E
Mistakes are hard to undo

Chorus:
G#m            B  F#
   Don't pull me down
              B
this is where I belong
    E
I think I'm different but
I'm the same and I'm wrong
G#m            B F#
   Don't pull me down
              B
this is where I belong
    E
I think I'm different
this is where I belong

I think it's disgusting, believing and trusting
If I gave a fuck there would be nothing
for me to prove
Although it's amusing, it's slightly confusing
I've done all I can but her ego is
still hard to move

You got, you got, you got to help me out
And I'll try not to argue
No one, no one, no one likes a dropout
Mistakes are hard to undo

Chorus:
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different,
but I'm the same and I'm wrong
Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different
(But this is where I belong)

Don't pull me down, this is where I belong
I think I'm different
(This is where I belong)
