E Johnny's always runnin around, C#m trying to find certainty E He needs all the world to confirm G#m that he ain't lonely A B Mary counts the walls, knows he tires easily Johnny thinks the world would be right if it would buy truth for him Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman But she made her bed Even when the chance was slim Johnny says he's willing to learn when he decides he's a fool Johnny says he'll live anywhere when he has time to Mary combs her hair Says he should be used to it Mary always hedges her bets, she never knows what to think She says he's still acting like he's being discovered Scared that he'll be caught Without a second thought Johnny feels he's wasting his breath trying to talk sense to her Mary says he's lacking a real sense of proportion So she combs her hair Knows he tires easily Johnny's always running around trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm that he ain't lonely Mary counts the walls Says he should be used to it You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C#m E G#m B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
