lyrics

capo 3

C G C F
well i could have been a fighter pilot if I had better eyes
C G C Am
could have been an NBA allstar if i knew how to dunk
F G C E7 Am
could have been an astronaut if i weren’t so scared of stars
F G C
i could have been a productive human being
C G C F
i could have been a doctor if i could only control the shakes
C G C Am
could have been a preacher if i only believed in God
F G C E7 Am
could have been a lover if i weren’t so fucking sad
F G C
i could have been a contributing member of society
F C
but I sold my soul for seven bucks i spent on cigarettes
F C
and i’ll bum you one if you’re running low
F G
and we can smoke it to the filter
Em Am
then throw it in the gutter
F Fm F Fm
the only home my poor old soul has ever had to call its own

C G C F
And i could have been a tree if i’d been planted in the ground
C G C Am
could have been a son to you if you’d only stuck around
F G C E7 Am
could have been a father if i weren’t so scared of mine
F G C-E7-Am
i’m a flesh and blood waste of your time
F
i’m a flesh and blood
Fm C
waste of your time
