[Verse 1]
C G Am E
This would not have happened if I hadn't missed my plane
F C G
I would have been there when they told you I'm the rat within the grain
C G Am E
Within this big misunderstanding now I'm being misunderstood
F C G
I'm thinkin someone's trying to fuck with me and set fire to my wood
[Chorus]
F G C(riff 1)
I wouldn't want you to want to be wanted by me
Dm G
I wouldn't want you to worry you'd be drowned within my sea
C G Am E
I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true
F (C) G C
In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you
[Verse 2]
C G Am E
The stupid situation now where everything goes wrong
F C G
If you can't tell if I am lying then you do not belong
C G Am E
In my bed, go rest your head upon the bones of a bigger man
F C G
And he can cover you with rockwool and you can close up like a clam
[Chorus]
F G C(riff 1)
Cause I wouldn't want you to want to be wanted by me
Dm G
I wouldn't want you to worry you'd be drowned within my sea
C G Am E
I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true
F (C) G C
In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you
[Interlude]
C(riff), G, F, C, F, G
C, G, Am, E, F, G, C
[Verse 3]
C G Am E
So go play with your piano, write a mediocre song
F C G
About the shell of mediocrity and pretend there's nothing wrong
C G Am
E
I never thought you were a chicken shit I never thought of you at all
F C G
Until you asked me to be part of it and now you're showing me your wall
[Chorus]
F G C(riff 1)
I wouldn't want you to want to be wanted by me
Dm G
I wouldn't want you to worry you'd be drowned within my sea
C G Am E
I only wanted to be wonderful and wonderful is true
F (C) G C
In truth I only really wanted to be wanted by you
