     C               F
If I could do what I want
          C           F
I would become an electrician
    C               F
I'd climb inside my ears
            Dm            F           C
And I would rearrange the wires in my brain
            F             C             F

And now the engineer is listening
     F               C
As I voice all my complaints
        F            Dm            F           C
From an orchestra of shaking metal keeping me awake
           F                    Dm           F             C
I was just wondering if there's any way that you made a mistake

Because I miss you the way that I miss nicotine

If it makes me feel better, how bad could it be?
       Dm                      F
Well I heard there's a fix for everything
      Dm                  F
Then why, then why, then why

Then why not me?

And I'm not fooled when you tell me that you're glad I came
     F           C             F
Am I honest to admit or just a hypocrite?

I know I should be being optimistic but I'm doubtful I can change
