C#
Never since I met you
F#
Did you let me in
C#
Even when I let you
F#
You wouldn't call me friend
C#
Pedal to the metal
F#
Mister, it's a sin

 A          E  C# F#
Getting so down
F#                  C# F#
I'd give you solid gold
                  C# F#
Just for your finger
F#
You get the medal
     A          E   C# F#
For getting so down,
 A          E
gettin' so down

A                           C#m
I guess you didn't see that sky
 E                            B
When the clouds are turned to isles
C#m                           A
I was glad when you couldn't hear me
         B                             C#m  A C#m
Nervous laughter when you shouted and cursed

C#m                         B
I'm not saying I understand
                            C#m A
Lord knows who can understand
                         B C#m
Life can be an awful plan
C#m                     A  C#m
And yours it ain't the worst

Here she comes now
In my mirror
Oh, I know how
She is a terror
Now I see her
In her mirror

Wearing a frown
I give you solid gold
Just for your finger
You get the medal for scariest frown
Scariest frown

I guess you didn't see that sky
When the clouds are turned to isles
I was glad when you couldn't hear my
Nervous laughter when you shouted and cursed

Fourthly, you're suspect
Thirdly, you don't get
Secondly, you've got no respect
Finally, you're not the first
