[Intro] | E | Am | [Verse 1]
   E                   Am
I stood up on the stage

   E                 Am
I started to sing my song

        E          Am
I said "I can rectify

                  F#m
Everything that's wrong"
[Chorus]

And I couldn't understand why people laughed

  F#m                E
I couldn't understand

     G#m                        C#m
I collected my things and I left

              F#m           B
Because now I understand, I understand
[Verse 2]
  E                 Am
I moved across the stage

  E                      Am
I sang loud and proud in time

          E                 Am
I said "I look into animals eyes

          F#m         B
And I see mine, I see mine"
[Chorus]

I couldn't understand

     G#m                        C#m
I collected my things and I left

                    F#m           B
Because now I understand, I understand
[Verse 3]
 E                  Am
Spotlit on the stage

        E              Am
For the whole world to see

E             Am
 I said "I am she

          F#m       B
And hе is me, he is me"
[Instrumental] | G#m | C#m | F#m | E | | G#m | C#m | F#m | B | [Verse 4]
   E                   Am
In full flight on thе stage

     E             Am
I am now so poorly lit

E                  Am
 I sing it because I

             F#m                     B
Could never speak it, I could never speak it
[Chorus]
      G#m                            C#m
And I couldn't understand why people laughed

  F#m                E
I couldn't understand

     G#m                        C#m
I collected my things and I left

                    F#m           B
Because now I understand, I understand
[Outro]
  E                Am
I froze up on the stage

    E         Am
The soul open wide

E                      Am
 And people laughed so hard that they cried
