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
