Verse 4:

It took a lost weekend in a hotel in Amsterdam
Twenty four gone years to conclude in tears
That the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
Are you laughing at me now
May I please laugh along


Interlude: (w/Riff 1 and Riff 2)


Verse 5:

I was a king bee with a head full of attitude
And astray heart on my sleeve wounded knees
And my one love song was a tattoo upon my palm
You wrote upon me when you took my hand

You see I
I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it
Drop me and I'll fall to pieces
Too easily
Too easily
Too easily


Outro: (A E F#m D x4) (w/Riff 1 and Riff 2)
