[Intro]
C Am C G
[Verse 1]
C
You see I've this friend
Who doesn't exist
Am
He takes strides all in time
With the watch on his wrist
F G
And I only speak
Am G G
'cos he compels me to
C
It's much like the voice
That lives in my sleep
Am
Painting Xes on dreams
That I'd like to keep
F G
But I'd rather not mention
Am G C C
that they all feature you
Am
da da da daa
G
da da da daa
[Chorus]
F G Am
Maybe I'm not right between my ears
F G
But crazy's just crazy, and also it makes me
C C/B Am
not an ounce less sincere
F G
But I've got a notion that you're this way too
C Am
Oh let's be together in a white padded room
Dm
And make lovely machines of our
F G
twisted up levers and gears
C
la da da daa
Am
G
[Verse 2]
C
Sometimes I send letters
From my fireplace
Am
So I set them aglow
Watch them burn into space
F G
As they float
Am G
softly away from me
C
They're all addressed
To the blackest of skies
Am
And I ask them to pour
On all but you and I
F G
So we'd huddle
Am G C
dry underneath the same tree
Am
G
[Chorus]
F G Am
Maybe I'm not right between my ears
F G
But crazy's just crazy, and also it makes me
C C/B Am
not an ounce less sincere
F G
But I've got a notion that you're this way too
C Am
Oh let's be together in a white padded room
Dm
And make lovely machines of our
F G
twisted up levers and gears
C
la da da daa
Am
G
[middle8]
F
But my soul's got a voice
C
And a black telephone
F
And it calls me at night
G
When I am alone
Em
And it's ranting and raving
Dm G G
in languages I can't speak
F
But if everyone thought
C
All their thoughts right aloud
F
Would we all be locked up
G
And never let out?
Em
I'm convinced
Dm G G
it's not only me
[Chorus]
F G Am
Maybe I'm not right between my ears
F G
But crazy's just crazy, and also it makes me
C C/B Am
not an ounce less sincere
F G
But I've got a notion that you're this way too
C Am
Oh let's be together in a white padded room
Dm
And make lovely machines of our
F G
twisted up levers and gears
C
la da da daa
Am
la da da daa
G
la da da daa
C
da da daa
