Verse 1:
 
   A                            G 
My brain is like a puppy and it doesn't know better, 
   A                           Em 
It gets in trouble if it gets away 
  A                           G 
I gotta be more tough I gotta grab it by the scruff, 
  A                             Em 
I gotta sternly teach it better ways 
    A                           G 
I'm getting into trouble when I don't keep watch, 
   A                                Em 
My brain is like a pup that makes a mess 
A                           G 
If I see it heading where I don't want it shedding 
     A                               Em 
I've learned to let it roam a little less 
     A                                   G 
I've learned that bad things happen if I don't pay attention 
     A                             Em 
If I turn around and suddenly it's gone 

 
   A                      G 
It only takes a moment to collect my thoughts 
   A                           Em 
It only takes a moment to move on 
   A                    G 
It only takes a moment 
   A                    Em 
It only takes a moment

Verse 2:
 
   A                           G 
My mind is like a floppy new arrival from the pound 
    A                                Em 
How can I blame it, it's too dumb to know 
          A                               G 
I can't expect it to respond when I'm the one who let it wander 
        A                             Em 
So it's up to me to train it where to go 
     A                          G 
Goes off into a darkened corner it will surely stumble, 
   A                              Em 
or into where unstable things are stacked 
A                                   G 
I'm the one who's left with all the wreckage and the cleanups 
        A                              Em 
I'm the one who has to teach it how to act 
A                     G 
No don't go there get over here I tell it 
     A                             Em 
Come back here and treat me with respect 

 
   A                      G 
It only takes a moment to collect my thoughts 
   A                           Em 
It only takes a moment to move on 
   A                    G 
It only takes a moment 
   A                    Em 
It only takes a moment
