[] - Since I'm pretty sure MCS plays this tuned song tuned down a half step,
you can either play the first Eb how I have it or play it higher since I have
it listed as standard tuning. If you tune it down you can play it as a Eb5.

Chorus (x1)
Fin.
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
I'm a screw-up of epic proportions
A walking hand grenade
Hyper-manic, a dime store dramatic
A conduit for pain
She said "Don't speak, don't think
Just take it all, take it all"
I said "Don't speak, don't think
Just mess me up, mess me up"
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
I'm pathetic, overly apologetic
I'm a tight-rope tragedy
You're chicken little, I'm a monkey in the middle
There's something wrong with me
She said "Don't speak, don't think
Just take it all, take it all"
I said "Don't speak, don't think
Just mess me up, mess me up"
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
Humming a slightly varying tune
Opposite angles of the moon
Buried in layers of ourselves
Leaves room for no one else
I believe it's true
Cause nothing matters
When I'm all wrapped up in you
I believe it's true
Cause nothing matters
When I'm all wrapped up in you
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
You better believe it's true
You know I do I do
