[Chorus] FmC# Hey, I heard it from the state BbmEb They told me you were never gonna let me get away FmC# And if you took me fishing you would never give me bait BbmEb I had to get away, I had to get away, ay, ay FmC# Hey, you try to compensate BbmEb For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate FmC# You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated BbmEb Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away
[Verse 1] FmC# Talking to ears that have been deaf Bbm For as long as I can remember FmC#Bbm A self-medicated handicap, so I speak to myself FmC#Bbm And I try so hard to get his stupid deaf ears to hear Fm That I've become illiterate, I've become dumb C#Bbm (Ya hear me? Ya hear me? Ya hear me?)
[Pre-Chorus] FmC# When I come through, you were dark blue BbmEb And I saved you from your darker days FmC# Born to take care of you BbmEb Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase
[Chorus] FmC# Hey, I heard it from the state BbmEb They told me you were never gonna let me get away FmC# And if you took me fishing you would never give me bait BbmEb I had to get away, I had to get away, ay, ay FmC# Hey, you try to compensate BbmEb For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate FmC# You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated BbmEb Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away
[Verse 2] FmC# Shot down by a guy I never wanted to kiss Bbm Not gonna hear the singing of his ringing triumphing FmC# And I'm chugging along in a train Bbm And I'm heading the wrong way, and I'm a train wreck FmC# And my heart goes "beat, beat, beat" Bbm To the music of this sad, same song FmC# It's quite depressing, there is no fixing to the problem Bbm When you're talking to an idiot
[Pre-Chorus] FmC# When I come through, you were dark blue BbmEb And I saved you from your darker days FmC# Born to take care of you BbmEb Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase FmC# Baby, only maybe BbmEb Just a dreamer, but I soon found out FmC# Heard the train tracks were behind me Bbm Tried to warn me, but both of my ears went out
[Pre-Chorus] FmC# When I come through, you were dark blue BbmEb And I saved you from your darker days FmC# Born to take care of you BbmEb Or I thought so, maybe it was just a phase
[Chorus] FmC# Hey, I heard it from the state BbmEb They told me you were never gonna let me get away FmC# And if you took me fishing you would never give me bait BbmEb I had to get away, I had to get away, ay, ay FmC# Hey, you try to compensate BbmEb For thinking with your one brain I should decapitate FmC# You showed me all your letters that I should've confiscated BbmEb Both of my eyes were weighted and I had to get away
