mother was a saint,
father was a sinner
Just tryna do it right in this

world of go -figure
Ab
Ebm
Tryna make tonight a little
something of a winner
Adrenaline and stage fright
One hell of a mixer,
look her dead in the eye
Wonder if they notice these days
Mom's boy ain't nearly so precocious
Ab
Ebm
But stage lights, tell me take it out,
blanket out
Make em all look like they
done seen a ghost
Boo, who that though?
Really it's an actor
Gb
Ebm
Balance on the precipice, tryna lean back
Shit, hey miss,
can I steal some perspective?

So I can go home, like this motherfucker

Ebm
dad was a flawed man who taught me to be a winner
And so my inner circle full of
Ab
Ebm
those I shared dinner with
The same ones who I know,
got my back all the way through the winter
What up?
But some of even the closest
Ebm
Still don't know me from a bar of soap
Ab
Ebm
Keep em at arm's length, the only way to
cope
When the going gets tough
and the bluff starts
I get so caught up in the undertow
Gb
Ebm
Looking for that subtext
with a microscope
Particularly when the issue's
so microscopic
And I'd like to drop it, but
somehow I can't let go
So, where'd that leave her?
Sitting home watching reruns?
