The Prodigy”- by ryan jacobson
[Verse]
F#m
She calls fun the dirty look from a bad romance
E Em
Teasing the alternative, phrases juggled in her hands
F#m
Put my mind on mute for I’ve murdered her dream
E Em
The fantastic foresight from the sweetest sixteen
[Chorus]
F#m Gm E F#m
I’m like a prodigy for breaking the young girl’s heart over and over,
Gm E
she should have known it from the start.
[verse]
F#m
Ms.Sunshine slipped into new shades of grey
E Em
It's gotten easier to numb myself to things I say
F#m
Being a dick is like a cake walk, I’m not here to blow your mind
E Em
Alto bent over baritones, to me you were just a good time
[Chorus]
F#m Gm E F#m
I’m like a prodigy for breaking the young girl’s heart over and over,
Gm E C#
she should have known it from the start.
[Bridge]
A# F A Dm
You’ve caught my bassline and sinker
A# F A Dm
It's not for you, but I know you’ll stay there
A# F A Dm
Waiting patiently for somebody to come and save ya
A# F A Dm
Waiting for me, something I can’t be
A# F
I’m a gasconador, I’m a stone cold faker
A Dm
A free refill poisoned appetizer
A# F
An amateur, An empty word
A Dm
Daddy’s little secret you mustn’t overhear
A# F
Laced pentobarbital, Uncontroversial
A Dm A# F
And still you and I know how to make a scene.
A
I know what you mean….
[Outro]
F#m
She calls fun the dirty look from a bad romance
E E C#
Being a dick is a cakewalk, but not when you’ve my hand
A# F A Dm
Put my mind on mute, please
A# F A Dm
