Spending every ounce of patience on
C                   CM7/E        F                      G
The kind of stuff a kindergarten teacher would roll her eyes at

How about you take a look at what I actually said

Pre-Chorus 2:
Am
Put yourself where I am
D
Do you have a clue?
Am
What a wasted piece of energy

But let me type up my rebuttal

I just-, ugh-, here you go
D
Here's something else for you to subtweet
