Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

 When you're the last one to know what everybody knows

 Shame falls down

 When you're the last one to see what everybody sees

 Shame falls down like rain falls down

 Life is messy, it's starting to repress me

 Time and time again I think I'm gonna win

 And it blows up in my face

When your last hope is gone and you're feelin’ so unable

Shame falls down

When your heart won't open up and there's love left on the table

Fame falls down like rain falls down

Life is messy, it's starting to distress me

They sell it in the press, they smell it on your breath

But you keep on comin’ clean

 Life is messy

 I don't wanna go back home, the streets are lined in rubble

 A heart that's made of stone can lead you into trouble

Life is messy, it's trying to depress me

They can kick you in the nuts, they can hit you where it hurts

Don't get down on your knees

Life is Messy, I feel like Elvis Presley

At a very early age they put you in a cage

Ad they push you out on stage

Life Is Messy
