Ezra Furman & The Harpoons - I wanna be a sheep

^AI wanna be a sheep ^B E D A E E D A B

^EI was a wolf for so long, howlin' ^Dup toward the moon I de^Avoured the defenseless s^Eheep-like balloons That were tied to a railing and would an^Dyway soon Be de^Aflated ^{B E}I met you in between my carn^Divorous meals And your h^Aair was so soft and your b^Eody was real And the layers of leaves blew a^Dway to reveal ^AA new pathway ^{B E}Now I'm tryin' to hide my love awa^Dy, be discrete But you're ^Aa reason to change and end ^Emy violent streak A reason to be normal, a r^Deason to bleat like a s^Aheep

^BI just wanna be a sh^Eeep I just wanna be a sh^Beep following right al^Aong with the crowds A ba^Bllon with my head floating ^Aup through the clouds And a^E little white string holding ^Dme to the ground ^ACould that be you?^B It could be you E D A ^EI just wanna be a shee^Dp ^{A E}Oh, well, ^Dda-di-da-di^A-da-da ^B

Now the cl^Eock on the wall plays a si^Dnister game It treats ^Aevery twelve hours ex^Eactly the same And you cannot return and you ^Dcan't get away It ^Akeeps going ^{B E}And everything you've done you can n^Dever undo So I k^Anow that it's useless to ^Etry and be new But when you keep your eye on me, s^Dteady and blue ^AI keep trying anyways ^B And that^E eye watching me makes me no^Dt want to hurt I don't w^Aant to draw anymore bl^Eood on your shirt And I don't want to stay up and ^Dpaw through the dirt I ne^Aed sleep

^BI just wanna be a sh^Eeep I just wanna be a sh^Beep and be gentle and d^Aocile and dumb And to ^Bhear a voice call me and kn^Aow I must come And a ^Eshepherd to lead me and forge^Dt where I'm from ^ACould that be you?^B It could be you E D A I just^E wanna^D be a^A sheep ^EOh, (howli^Dng) ^A Okay^B

^EYes, I am the one who's been k^Dilling the flock I a^Admit it and now that you're ^Eover the shock Would you take me and keep me and t^Durn back the clock With your p^Aretty little hand?

^BI just wanna be a s^Eheep ^{D A E}I just I just wa^Dnna be a s^Aheep ^EWoo! (^DHowling^A) B A E
