Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Well, I don't want a thing to do with your kind

And I ain't got no time to kill on your dime

Strung up, hanging 'round

 Looking like you're upside down

Well, I ain't wanting to shed no blood, that's your crime

And I ain't wanting to sling no mud, I clean it up

You ain't what I'd call a friend

I wouldn't even if I could pretend

Man, you ain't like anybody else

As night becomes the sun to rise

As dirt becomes the butterflies

As sure as though it always seems to stay the same

And I'll be waiting anxiously

And I'll be falling fast asleep

And I'll be dreaming of the day the dream died

[V1]

No sticks, no stones could break my bones like you can

If I knew hate, I'd call it love for you, man

High up on the hill, cheaper than a dollar bill

Man, you ain't like anybody else

 Should we pretend that it's the end?

Are you my curse or are you my friend?

And if we got hit to the end of the road

Will you be there to carry my load?

 I'm getting it back with that terrible feeling

 My vision is cracked, but it looks like it's healing

I'm getting it back like it's four in the morning

When the sun only shines as if it's giving a warning

I'm getting it back with the rest of the leap year

I'm keeping the rabbit, the bat, and the reindeer

I'm getting it out, whatever I've gotta keep in

I'm telling the truth, said it don't win with pretend

 Should we pretend?

 Should we pretend?

 Should we pretend?
