If it doesn't come naturally, leave it [-----------]

VERSE 2
********
DWell I'm up to my neck in the Gcrumbling wreckage
Of Dall that I wanted from Glife (Section 1)
DWhen I looked for respect all I Ggot was neglect
Though I Bmswallowed the lign as a F#sign of the times
But Gdealing a jack from the Gmback of the pack
They said D &Aquot;You Bmlose again"
GOh, A I said, who Dneeds it

CHORUS
*******
F#Well don't get me wrong now I tried to get on
With the Bmjokers that Agot in my Gway
And I put on a smile and I tried all the while to be Dstraight
But they F#just wanted more all the time and I'm sure
That you Bmknow what I Amean when I Gsay
That I'm sick of the touch and there's only so much you can Atake.

VERSE 3
********
DWell nothing that's real is Gever for free
And you Djust have to pay for it Gsometime (Section 1)
She Dsaid it before, she Gsaid it to me
I Bmsuppose she believed there was F#nothing to see
But the Gsame old four Gmimaginary walls
She Dbuilt for Aliving Bminside
I said Goh, A you just can't Dmean it

CHORUS
*******
F#Well there was never a doubt that she had to get out
she was Bmjust looking Aaround for a Gway
In the pit of the night there was nowhere to hide Dany more
She was F#out on a limb, she was reaching for things
That she Bmwanted, but jAust couldn't Gsay
And she had to be sure that she wouldn't get caught like Abefore.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
VERSE 4
********
DWell nothing that's forced can Gever be right
If it doDesn't come naturally, leGave it (Section 1)
DThat's what she said as she Gturned out the light
And Bmshe may have been wrong, and she F#may have been right
But I Gwoke with the frost, and Gmnoticed she'd lost
The Dveil that Acovered her Bmeyes
I said Goh, A you can Dleave it.
