Tom: A
Key: D
Intro: riff
These are the thoughts - that go through my head
In my backyard on a - sunday afternoon
When I have the house - to myself and I am not
Expending all that energy on fighting
Bm G D
With my boyfriend
D ( intro riff )
Is he the one - that I will marry
And why is it so hard - to be objective about
Myself why do I feel - cellularly alone
Am I supposed to live - in this crazy city
Bm G D
Can blindly continued fear-induced regurtitated life-denying tradition
Be overcome
D ( intro riff )
Where does the mo - ney go that I send
To those in need, if we - have so much why do some people have
Nothing still why do - I feel frantic when I
Bm
First wake up in the morning - why do you say you are spiritual
G D
Yet you treat people like shit
D
How can you say - you're close to God
And yet you talk behind - my back as though I'm not
A part of you, why do - I say "I'm fine" when it's
Bm
Obvious I'm not, - why's it so hard to tell you what I want
G D
Why can't you just read my mind?
Intro: riff
Why do I fear - that the quieter I am
The less you will listen - why do I care whether you like me
Or not why's it so hard - for me to be angry
Bm
Why is it such work to stay - conscious and so easy to get stuck
G D
And not the other way around
D ( intro riff )
Will I ever move - back to Canada can
I be with a lover - with whom I am a student
And a master, oh why am I - encouraged to shut my
Mouth when it gets too close - to home, why cannot I
Bm G D
Live in the moment
