INTRO: E

E                       G
Tell your friends not to think aloud
D               E
Until they swallow
E                G
Whisper things into my brain
D                     E
Your voice sounds so hollow


E            G
I am not a leader of men
D                 E
Since I prefer to follow
E                   G
Do you think I could have a drink
D                     E        G D
Since it's so hard to swallow
             E
So hard to swallow


E                G
So turn the television off
D                 E
and I will sing a song
E                   G
And if you suddenly have the urge
D              E
You can sing along


E                   G
I touch your hand, I touch your face
D                     E
I think the fruit is rotten
E                    G
Give me lessons on how to breath
D                      E       G D
Cause I think I've forgotten
              E
I think I've forgotten
E        G
One day, up to a cliff
D                   E
That overlooked the water
E                G
I jumped in to save a girl
D                  E
It was somebody's daughter
E                G
And now the ring is on my hand
D                      E
It was given to me by her
E               G
To this day we all sit around
D                      E        G D 
And dream of ways to get higher
               E
To get much higher
