[Intro] D G D G D G D G [Verse 1]
D                     G
While I was watching this talk show the other day

D                G
And on it there was this guy

D                    G
And he was saying "When you let other people tell you what's right

D                     G
when you leave your instinct and your own truth behind he said

D                     G
that's a virus of the mind,

D                     G
that's a virus of the mind"

D                     G
Well I guess it's kinda like loosing your sight

D                     G
For a second you think that they might be right

D                     G
And it feeds the doubts that you have inside

D                     G
It almost starts to feels like a crime

D                     G
To follow your own rhythm and rhyme
[Chorus]
D           A       G
I'm pretty happy, living in my

A                  D           A
My own sweet time, living in my

G              A    D          A
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your

        D
Virus of the mind

D                         A
My own sweet time, living in my

G                     A
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your

D
Virus of the mind

G
Your virus of the mind
[Verse 2]
D                            G
Well I went to this party thing last night

D                           G
A lot of people I hadn't seen in a long long time

D                     G
And they wanted to know about my life

D                      G
But making me feel like it wasn't quite right

D                      G
Like "Where's is your kids?" and "Where is you car?"

D                       G
I said "I don't have either but I have a guitar"

D                      G
And I ended up feeling like I was a freak

D                       G
So I found some wine and something to eat

D                     G
I talked to the dog to pass the time

D                    G
I told myself "I'm doing just fine"

D                     G
It's just a virus of the mind

D                      G
It's just a virus of the mind
[Chorus]
D           A       G
I'm pretty happy, living in my

A                  D           A
My own sweet time, living in my

G              A    D          A
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your

        D
Virus of the mind

D                         A

I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your

D
Virus of the mind

G
Your virus of the mind
[Verse 3]
D                          G
It's in the deep of your soul, it's on the tip of your tongue

D                   G
It's the feeling you get, when you feel young

D                              G
It's in the sound of a beat, it's in the base of your spine

D                          G
It's in your gut reaction, yeah every time

D                                      G
But they tell you what you should have, they tell you who you should be

D                       G
It's in the pictures and ads and in the magazines

D                         G
I'm kicking it off like a bug in the breeze

D                           G
Cause is anyone out there inside me

D                     G
I say "Is anyone out there inside me?"

D                  G
I say "Is anyone?"

Em A

D           A       G

My own sweet time, living in my

G              A    D          A
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
