D/F# - 200232 C/B - X20010 G Em D/F# C There ought to be a town somewhere named for how I feel G Em D/F# C Yeah I could be the mayor down there and say welcome to Sorryville G Em D/F# C It wouldn’t be on a map nowhere you might say that it don’t exist A C D But if you make enough wrong turns it’d be hard to miss G Em D/F# C There ought to be a bridge somewhere they could dedicate to me G Em D/F# C I’d probably come to the ceremony with a can of gaso-line G Em D/F# C Walk on over to the other side and there I’d light a match A And sit and stare through the smoke and flames C D Wondering how I’m gonna get back Chorus: C C/B Why do I do the things I do Am Em Was I born this way am I a self made fool C C/B I shoot the lights and I curse the dark Am Em I need your love but I break your heart C G And I know the words that’ll bring you back Am Em But I don’t say nothing as I watch you pack C G A I had to work to be the jerk I’ve come to be C D G Em D C It ain’t easy being me There ought to be a sideshow act for freaks like me Yeah I could be the star of the show with my name on the marquee In a room with a big red button that says danger do not touch Twice a day I’d mash it down and you could watch me self destruct Chorus
