xThere's a riff in the song where they slide the C chord up and down. I marked
that with C*. You can just play a regular C chord there if you want. If you
want to do the slide, I think they just slide up 3 frets.
Capo 1st fret
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C F
I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy
C
And I don't know what to do
C F
I am the only son of a pastor I know
C
who does the things I do
[Chorus]
G Am F C
But if it was you I don't think that it would matter
G Am F C
Oh and if it was true then I just wouldn't matter
[Verse 2]
C F
I was amazed at the color and shapes that you drew
C
A paper cut for two
C F
I am the only son of a bastard I know
C
Who knows the bastard too
[Chorus 2]
G Am F C
Because it was you I called it a different story
G Am F C
But if I was you I'd make this a simpler story
[Verse 3]
G
I bet you did what you did when you did it
F
To do it again by the time you were done with it
C*
G
I bet you did what you did when you did
F
Just to tell every friend that you had that the Lord did it
C*
C*
[Chorus 1]
G Am F C
I finally knew that I simply couldn't matter
G Am F C
You finally knew that you simply couldn't matter
[Verse 4]
G
I guess that it's true you never knew
F C
The passive power of the truth so cut me loose
G
If I could write another phrase
F
We might be better off this way
C
But there's no use
C
No there's no use
C* (x5)
