(Play two times and end with the first chord sustained)
These are the chords used, in case this is an easier way for you to see them. I do not
my music theory very well, so I do not know the names.

version 2
tuned half a step down.
I'm not going to tab out the weird intro because i haven't

achieved using a phase shifter.

LYRICS:
You don't look but you kick me
You can't feel but you hit me
You can't live with the way i pray
Why do we all have to look this way
I gotta heart, i got blood feel pain
Time time is not on my side
cause the way i am.
Gotta gotta now gotta find a reason why
A woman aint a man
(verse 1)
Why do we all have to think this way
I gotta heart, i got blood feel pain
Fall into those single file lines
like army ants
Yeah, fall into those single file lines
And complete the plan
(verse 1)
(pre chorus 2)
You don't look but you kick me
You can't deal with the way i pray
