[Chorus]
D G
Surprise surprise
D G
I understand your shock at getting wise
Em A
I was feeling shame, you were feeling stupid
Bm G
'cause I knew what was wrong with me long before you did
D G D
I knew what was wrong with me long before you did mm hmmm
[Verse]
Bm E
I spent my whole adult life worrying
A F#m
That the world would find me out before too long

I faint, I fail, my vision starts a-blurrying

So just stay strong. Or get strong

Em A
One false move: that's all she wrote
