Intro:
-,,-,Fmaj4 x2
Verse 1:
Fmaj4
There are days I don’t believe the words I say
Like a life that I’m not living
-
A song that I’m not singing but to you
Verse 2:
Fmaj4
There are times that I believe I’m satisfied
Like an intimate connection
-
Despite this bad reception with you
Pre-chorus:
Cause I can’t afford to pay
For most of what I say
So it’s a lucky thing
That the truth’s public domain
Chorus:
And I am like a mockingbird
I’ve got no new song to sing
And I am like an amplifier
I just tell you what I’ve heard
Fmaj4
Oh, I’m like a mockingbird
Verse 3:
Fmaj4 Fmaj4
And yes, it’s true that I need this more than you
Like one whose name is many
-
Have mercy, please don’t send me away
Pre-chorus 2:
And I’ll do all I can
To be a better man
Oh I’ll clean up this act
And be worse than we started
Chorus
