[Solo - Just the Chords Essentially] Vs3 You think you know what brings me down That I want those things you could never allow You see me smiling you think it's a frown Turned upside down Vs4 Cause everyone is a fucking pro And they all got answers from trouble they've known And they all gotta say what they should and shouldn't do Though they don't have a clue Chorus
