A firm kick in the pants
                                 
This last chance to get things right

                               
This was one time I closed an eye
                   
Looked away from you


Look out for yourself tonight

Sometimes I have to get things right

                            
I never meant what I said to you
                                       
To give up all the things that you love to do

                                  
I'd never guess that you'd do me wrong
                             
I'll never accept that dance and song

                  
A little time to adjust
                       
Would be just what we need

                                                
I've meant to tell you what I think that you think
                     
When I cross your mind


Forgone, stressed at the light

Whats wrong with being uptight

                         
I never say what I intend to
                          
But does it mean that much to you

                                  
I'd a close call with a glitch in time
                            
Are you really that happy to be mine

                
No I'm not disguising
            
All that fighting
                 
And dreams not coming true

(solo backing =        )

                          
I will play some light from the sun
                     
The world by my side

                  
I will see dawn as a forlorn
             
maiden in the sky

                       
And I will play a song of thunder
              
you may recognize

                      
You make a never, thats forever
                 
Knowing what you deny

                                
When I revisit the past its a blast
                      
I've just gotta move on

                                     
I've just let down someone I relied on
                 
And I dont see why


How'd we pretty up that speech

M City talking through me

                                
I've never done what I set out to do
                                
Don't come to me 'cuz I'll run from you

                                 
Left out of life would I really care
                                    
Not a whole lot, there's nothing for me there

                                     
I'll never forget the limits that we set
                
Back when it was our moon

(Fill = G|---14b---14b---14b---14b---|)

                                                
And I never made a pretence of living with good sense
                          
It's really not my strong suit

and that about does it :) love this song, love John Frusciante! any
