All I really want    (intro) (midi)

 

     A - G - A - G             A

1.                        Do I stress you out,

              G

    my sweater is on backwards and inside out,

                             A             G       - D

    and you say, "H...ow appropiate."

        A

    I don't want to dissect everything today,

        G                                                                  A        G       - D

    I don't mean to pick you apart you see, but I c...an't help it.

               A                                           G

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

       A                                       G  - D

    slap me with a splintered ruler.

           A                                                     G

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

        A                                         - G - D

    if only I could hunt the hunter.

                   A                                               G                                  A  - D

   And all I really want is some patience, a way to calm the angry voice.

                    A                     G                     A             G  - D

    And all I really want is deliverance, ahaaoaoahahao !

2. Do I wear you out,

                      G

    you must wonder why I'm relentless and all strung out,

                 A                                           - G - D

    I'm consumed by the chill of solitary.

                     A

    I'm like Estella,

                   G                                             A                               - G - D

    I like to reel it in and spit it out, I'm frustrated by your apathy.

            A                                             G

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

         A                                         - G - D

    if only I could meet the Maker.

           A                                    G

    And I am fascinated by the spiritual man,

            A                                                G    - D

    I'm humbled by his humble nature, yeah.

                         A

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

      G                                         A  - D

    someone else to catch this drift.

                         A                                 G              A                G  - D

    And what I wouldn't give to meet a kindred, ahaaoaoahahao !

          C                                               D

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

         C                                                D

    enough about you, let's talk about life for a while.

             C                                                D

    The conflicts, the craziness and the sound of pretenses,

               A

    falling all around, all aro......ound.

3. Why are you so petrified of silence,

      G                                   - - - -

    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                             A

    or did you long for the next distraction.

            A                                    G

    And all I need now is intellectual intercourse,

          A                                       G      - D

    a soul to dig the hole much deeper.

           A                                                   G

    And I have no concept of time other than it is flying,

         A                                  - G - D

    if only I could kill the killer.

             A                              G

    All I really want is some peace, man,

          A                                    G      - D

    a place to find a common ground.

                    A                      G                       A             G  - D

    And all I really want is a wavelength, ahaaoaoahahao !

                   A                              G

    And all I really want is some comfort,

         A                                  G

    a way to get my hands untied.

                    A                            G               A              G - D

    And all I really want is some justice, ahaaoaoahahao .....
