[Am]I remember when, I remember, I remember when I lost my [C]mind
There was something so pleasant about that [F]place.
Even your emotions had an echo, in so much [E]space

[Am]And when you're out there, without care,
Yeah, I was out of [C]touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know e[F]nough
I just knew too [E]much

Does that make me [Am]crazy?
Does that make me [C]crazy?
Does that make me [F]crazy?
Probab[E]ly…

[A]And I hope that you are having the time of your [F]life
But think [C]twice, that's my only ad[E]vice
Come on now, who do [Am]you, who do you, who do you, who do you think you [C]are,
Ha ha ha bless your [F]soul
You really think you're in con[E]trol

Well, I think you're [Am]crazy!
I think you're [C]crazy!
I think you're [F]crazy, Just like [E]me…

[A]My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on a [F]limb
And all I re[C]member is thinking, I want to be like [E]them
[Am]Ever since I was little, ever since I was little it looked like [C]fun
And it's no coincidence I've [F]come, And I can die when I'm [E]done

Maybe I'm [Am]crazy
Maybe you're [C]crazy
Maybe we're [F]crazy

How did Mandela get the will to sur[pass the everyday
when injustice had him caged and trapped in every way?
How did Gandhi ever withstand the hunger strikes at all?
Didn't do it to gain power or money if I recall.
It's the gift, I guess I'll pass it on, mother thinks it'll lift the stress of Babylon
my mother knows, my mother she suffered blows
I don't know how we survived such violent episodes
I was so worried, it hurt to see you bleed,
but as soons as you came out the hospital you gave me sweets yea,
they tried to take you from me, but you still only gave 'em some prayers and
sympathy.
Dear Mama, you helped me write this

I backed my car into a cop car, the other day.
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok.
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say.
Well you just laughed it off, it was all ok.

And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on, ok.
And we'll all float on any way, well.

A fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight-of-hand.
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on good news is on the way.

And we'll all float on, ok...

capo 2

[C][F][G][C]

[C]She don't like her eggs all runny
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
She [F]looks down her nose at money
She [C]gets it on like the Easter Bunny
[G]She's my baby, I'm her honey
I'm never gonna let her [C]go

[C]He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
He [F]ain't too sharp but he gets things done
[C]Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
[G]He's my baby, And I'm his honey
Never gonna let him [C]go

Chorus:
In spite of [F]ourselves
We'll end up a'sittin' on a [C]rainbow
Against all [G]odds
Honey, we're the big door [C]prize
We're gonna [F]spite our noses
Right off of our [C]faces
There won't be nothin' but big old [G]hearts
Dancin' in our [C]eyes.

[C]She thinks all my jokes are corny
Convict movies make her horny
She [F]likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
[C]Swears like a sailor when she shaves her legs
[G]She takes a lickin' but she keeps on tickin'
I'm never gonna let her [C]go.

[C]He's got more balls than a big brass monkey
He's a whacked out weirdo and a lovebug junkie
[F]He's sly as a fox and crazy as a loon
[C]When payday comes, he's howlin' at the moon
[G]But he's my baby. I don't mean maybe
Never gonna let him [C]go

[Repeat chorus]

There won't be nothin' but big old [G]hearts
Dancin' in our [C]eyes.

Same old city with a different name
