All day long [C#5]
I felt like[A5]
Smash[C#5]ing my head through a c[A5]lear glass wi[G#5]ndow
But instead[C#5]
I went out[A5]
And smas[C#5]hed up a phone booth ar[A5]ound the co[G#5]rner
[C#]
[C#]I never had the chance to ch[F#]oose my own parents
[C#]I never knew why I should [G#]be stuck with mine
[C#]Mommy's always trying [Bb]not to eat
[G#]And Daddy's always smelling like he's pi[C#]ckled in booze
[C#]
[C#]I never had the chance to ch[F]oose my own name
[F#]I never knew why I should [D#]be stuck with mine
[C#]Mommy's always talking about f[Bb]amily pride
[G#]And Daddy's always hiding from [C#]his weekend bride
All day long [C#5]
I felt like[A5]
Smash[C#5]ing my head through a c[A5]lear glass wi[G#5]ndow
But instead[C#5]
I went out[A5]
And smas[C#5]hed up a station wagon [A5]around the [G#5]corner
[C#]
[C#]I looked in the mirror a[F#]nd told myself
[C#]"At least I don't look like t[G#]hem, at least"
[C#]Mommy's like a filmstar in a di[Bb]storted mirror
[G#]Daddy's like a guy who lost his st[C#]omach in the war
[C#]I went to shake hands with the Pre[F]sident in Miami
[F#]I went to a rock show to see M[D#]ick Jagger
[C#]You'll never be[G#]lieve it, the su[Bbm]rprise of my l[F#]ife
[D#]They had paint on their faces just like my M[C#]ommy
[C#]Am I going crazy, or is it just you, D[G#]addy?
[Bbm]Am I going nuts, or is it just you, Mo[F#]mmy?
[C#]Am I plain g[G#]one, or is it j[Bbm]ust the w[F#]orld?
[D#]Daddy, I'd rather have you d[F#]ead than c[C#]razy
[Bbm]Trying to talk to them is like e[F#]ating chicken dinner when you're
a[G#]ngry
[Bbm]Trying to get their love is like wat[F#]ching ice cream melt when
you're h[G#]ungry
[Bbm]They gave me a watch that's gua[G#]ranteed not to break
But my M[F#]ommy and D[Bbm]addy broke [G#]up last f[C#]all
[C#]Am I going crazy, or is it just you, D[G#]addy?
[Bbm]Am I going nuts, or is it just you, Mo[F#]mmy?
[C#]Am I plain [G#]gone, or is it j[Bbm]ust the w[F#]orld?
[D#]Mommy, I'd rather have you d[F#]ead than c[C#]razy
(main riff)
All day long [C#5]
I felt like[A5]
Smash[C#5]ing my head through a c[A5]lear glass wi[G#5]ndow
But instead[C#5]
I went out[A5]
And smas[C#5]hed up a church ar[A5]ound the co[G#5]rner
