^ETime and time again Lord ^AI keep going through the ^Emotions E B slide down to A A means to an end but the ends don't seem to meet ^EWalking around living the dream^A anytime I take the ^Enotion ^ETil the truth comes bubbling up so bittersweet

^AAin't no point getting outta bed ^Eif you aint living the dream ^EIt's like making a big old pot of coffee when you ain't got^B no cream ^AI don't need to change my strings ^EThe dirt don't hurt the way I s^Aing ^EI don't have to do a Goddamn thing except sit a^Bround and wait to d^Eie

^EBeen waiting on an angel waitres^As to come and take my ord^Eer ^ETell me all about the special toda^By ^A ^EStaring at a puddle of mud in my spoon c^Aouldn't be much b^Eoarder ^EHoping them circles don't call back telling me to^B start today

^AThat old man upstairs, h^Ee wears a crooked smile ^EStaring down at the chaos he ^Bcreated ^ASaid son if you ain't having fun j^Eust wait a little while ^EMomma's gonna wash it all away ^EAnd she thinks M^Bercy's overrated ^E
