Intro: Em - D - C - B7

[Em]Taking up my time again (taking up my time again),

[D]More than I can stand (more than I can stand),

[C]Coffee and the conversation [B7]never ends when...

[Em]All I really need to find (all I really need to find),

[D]Is one short clever line (one short clever line),
[C]To pinpoint my disgust it's always [B7]just too much or...

[Em]Not...[B7]enough...

[Em]And I'm ov[B7]erwhelmed.

[G]So I'll keep it simple for [Em]obvious reasons,

And I'll [C]say what I should and just [D7]hope you believe me,

But it [G]never gets [Em]easi[C]er,

[D7]Oh it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r,

[D7]Oh no, no.

[Em]Sing it to myself again (sing it to myself again),

[D]Can't hear a word you said (can't hear a word you said),

[C]The syllables the sounds just are [B7]in sentences and...

[Em]All I really want to do (all I really want to do),

[D]Is tear straight into you,

[C]Explode, unload a hail of insults un[B7]til you finally care...

[Em]And...[B7]I'm sick...to death.

[G]So I'll keep it simple for [Em]obvious reasons,

And I'll [C]say what I should and just [D7]hope you believe me,

But it [G]never gets [Em]easi[C]er,

[D7]Oh it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r,

[D7]Oh no, no.

[Em] [-] [D] [-] [C] [-] [B7]
[Em]A strong distaste for confrontation,

[D]Leaves no room for self expression,

[C]Such a stranger in me so[B7] docile,

[Em]Though don't you know it[B7] all takes its toll...

[G]I'll keep it simple for obv[Em]ious reasons,

And I'll [C]say what I should and just [D7]hope you believe me,

But it [G]never gets [Em]easi[C]er,

[D7]Oh it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r,

[D7]Oh it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r (all I really want to do),

[D7]Well i[G]t never gets[Em] eas[C]ier (is tear straight into you),

[D7]No it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r (all I really want to do),

[D7]Oh it [G]never gets e[Em]asie[C]r (is tear straight into you).
