      BbmBbm   DbDb
If I could escape I would but,

First of all, let me say
    BbmBbm     DbDb       Eb9Eb9        Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
I must apologize for acting stank & treating you this way
        BbmBbm          DbDb
Cause I've been acting like sour milk all on the floor
     Eb9Eb9             Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
It's your fault you didn't shut the refrigerator
   BbmBbm           DbDb       Eb9Eb9   Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
Maybe that's the reason I've been acting so cold?

You held me down, I'm at my lowest boiling point
       BbmBbm  DbDb     Eb9Eb9     Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
Come help me out, I need to get me out of this joint
       BbmBbm   DbDb       Eb9Eb9   Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
Come on let's bounce, counting on you to turn me around
      BbmBbm    DbDb           Eb9Eb9  Gbmaj7Gbmaj7
Instead of clowning around, let's look for some common ground

I can see that you're angry by the way that you treat me

Hopefully you don't leave me, wanted you with me
