           E 
I've got a regular problem 
      A                              E      B  E 
So my standard break from life is in order 
           E 
I'm having trouble making sentences 
    A                         E      B  E 
I'm older but I don't feel any smarter 
          A 
You see I don't know what I said to you 
    B 
And now you're pissed at you know who 
    E            A 
And I guess I deserve it 
               E                     B                E 
I wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time 
         E 
I try to leave a good impression 
         A                             E     B  E 
But it's hard when my obsession's in a wine glass 
                E 
And when you're only 23 
         A                                 E     B  E 
It's not attractive to complain about your sore back 
          A 
Yes I can bitch until my eyes are blue 
    B 
And you're in bed with someone new 
    E              A 
And I guess you deserve him 
             E                     B                E         A 
Wish I could waste my time without wasting all your time 
A           B 
You say I'm fixable 
  E             C#m 
A classic case, lack of will 
A 
I say I don't wanna try 
           B 
I'd rather stay here all night

E I've got a motivation problem A E B E So my standard break from life is getting longer E Spent over 30 hours in this bed A E B E In two days, I guess I could've phoned her A But now that I'm awake B I'd rather take a drink B And walk down to the lake E A And beg the sky for lightning bolts E B E A I can't waste my time without wasting all your time B You say it's fixable E C#m A classic case, lack of will A I say I don't wanna try B I'd rather sit here all night
