A 
Do I stress you out?

  
My sweater is on backwards and inside out

                                    G   D 
And you say, "How appropriate!"

  A 
I don't wanna dissect everything today

  
I don't mean to pick you apart, you see

                          G   D 
But I can't help it

    A 
And there I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off

                                   G            D 
Slap me with the splintered ruler

    A 
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already

    A 
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already

          A 
And all I really want is some patience

                                    G       D 
A way to calm the angry voice

           A 
And all I really want is deliverance

                        G       D 
Ah, aao, aao, aao, aa, aah

     A 
Do I wear you out?

  
You must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out

                                    G   D 
I'm consumed by the chill of solitary

              A 
I'm like Estella

  
I like to reel it in and then spit it out

                             G  D 
I'm frustrated by your apathy

    A 
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land

                               G        D 
If only I could meet the maker

    A 
And I am fascinated by the spiritual man

                                  G     D 
I'm humbled by his humble nature, yeah

           A 
And what I wouldn't give to find a soulmate

                                  G     D 
Someone else to catch this drift

           A 
And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred

                          G     D 
Ah, aao, aao, aao, aa, aah

  G                               D 
Enough about me, let's talk about you for a minute

  G                                A 
Enough about you, let's talk about life for a while

        G 
The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses falling

          A 
All around, all around

A 
Why are you so petrified of silence?

  
Here, can you handle this?

                          A 
Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines

  
Or when you think you're gonna die?

                                  G       D 
Or did you long for the next distraction?

    A 
And all I need now is intellectual intercourse

                                  G             D 
A soul to dig the hole much deeper

                                  G             D 
A soul to dig the hole much deeper

                               G                D 
If only I could kill the killer

          A 
And all I really want is some peace, man

                                 G      D 
A place to find a common ground

          A 
And all I really want is a wavelength

                          G     D 
Ah, aao, aao, aao, aa, aah

          A 
And all I really want is some comfort

                            G           D 
A way to get my hands untied

          A 
And all I really want is some justice

                           G    D 
Ah, aao, aao, aao, aa, aah

     A 
It's all I really want, some patience

  
A way to calm me down

     A 
And all I really want is deliverance

      G              D 
A place to find a common ground

      G              D 
A place to find a common ground
