Standard (EADGBE)

 Well I've got stretchmarks on my brain

 Just tryin' to figure out your game

 I don't understand the rules,

 Who is who and whose is whose

 But I'm playin' just the same

 I've got a ticket to a place

 It's called confusion on my face

 I don't have a single clue

 How can I keep up with you?

 I'm not even in the race

 You tell me I am in the wrong

 And then you praise my stupid songs

 I'm never sure of what to say

 A nervous breakdown every day

 You take no prisoners with me

 And then you tell me I am free

 But I will never get away

 I'm in love and I'm afraid

 Well I've got stretchmarks on my brain

 Just tryin' to figure out your game

 I don't understand the rules,

 Who is who and whose is whose

 But I'm playing just the same

 And you're not gonna let me go

 Til you find out what I know

 And I don't know a single thing

 'Cept that I can never win

 And you always tell me so

 You take no prisoners with me

 And then you tell me I am free

 But I will never get away

 I'm in love and I'm afraid
