Am                Dm                Am 
Used to have just one foot out the door

Yeah, I always wanted more 
C    G            C 
I always was the one 
C                  E 
You thought would never marry 
Am            Dm          Am 
Used to be willfully obtuse 
Am         Dm           C 
(or is the word abstruse?) 
C         G          C 
Semantics like a noose

Get out your dictionaries

Dm                     E  
I'm gonna cut to the quick 
E                    Dm 
This is all non-fiction 
Dm                        E 
Words you beat with a stick 
E                         E7 
These are my true convictions

Are you serious?

Cause every night of your life 
C        E 
You'll fight for it 
Am      Dm   
So mysterious 
C        G 
How imperious! 
C           G 
But are you serious 
B                             E 
When it really comes down to it?

I see that you're down there and I'm up here  
Am                Dm             C 
Your boyfriend's gone to get a beer 
C         G           C           E 
Leaving us crystal clear lines of communications

I drop my third-person in disguise
