Just a simple version of Julien’s Medium Build cover [Verse 1]
                         D
All my friends say that I'm

                          G
Who's to say that they're wrong
I spent a good time being
Bm
selfless

                        G
Look at all the good it's done
[Verse 2]
                            D
I had a tongue that wouldn't
speak
                          G
And a spine that wouldn't stand
All that I learned from being
Bm
selfless

                     G
Who'd wish that on a man
[Verse 3]
                          D
All my friends they say I'm
changing
                 G
From the man I once was

                     Bm
Hell, I can barely remember
that boy
                        G
A midnight lamp, a burning fuzz
[Verse 4]
                       D
All my friends say I'm hasty

                G
With woebegone apologies
I always took a certain
Bm
pleasure

                     G
In meeting everybody's needs
[Chorus]
  G            A
But I learned myself in

  F#m
solitude
`G A I straightened up
         F#m            G
When the veil tore in two

 G               A
Chubby and thin-skinned

C               D
But god how I grew

C               D
Oh god, how I grew
[Verse 5]
                       D
All my friends say I'm crazy

                        G
All the crazies call me friend

                        Bm
All of the liars beg my pardon

                         G
All of the beggars let me in
[Verse 6] None of my friends know my
D
secrets

                    G
And it's safer that way
I guess I'm writing myself
 Bm
blank checks

                       G
For when I choose to run away
[Chorus 2]
    G            A
But I learned myself in

    F#m
solitude

    G          A
I straightened up

         F#m            G
When the veil tore in two

 G               A
Chubby and thin-skinned

C               D
But god how I grew

C               D
Oh god, how I grew
