[Intro]
F G C Am (x2)

[Verse 1]
F G
Wake up with somebody near you
C Am
And at someone else's place
F G
You took acid and looked in the mirror
C Am
Watched the beard crawl around on your face
F G
Oh, the revolution was here
C Am
That would set you free from those bourgeoisie
F G
In the morning everything's clearer
C Am
When the sunlight exposes your age

[Chorus]

[+play chords an octave higher+]
F G
But that's okay
C Am
And that's okay

[Verse 2]

[-revert to standard chords-]
F G
Grab your clothes and head to the doorway
C Am
If you dance out, no one complains
F G
Find the place where you can be boring
C Am
Where you won't need to explain
F G
That you're sick in the head and you wish you were dead
C Am
Or at least instead of sleeping here you prefer your own bed, come on
F G
You just suck at self-preservation
C Am
Versus someone else's pain

[Chorus]
