Intro: G D C G Em D C(walkdown) G (2x)
[G]Kissin'[D] in a classroom on a[C] campus on the coast[G]
Em D C (walkdown) G
After hours of anlysis
[G]I loved you first[D] yeah I loved yo[C]u the most[G]
Em D C (walkdown) G
Now it feels like paralysis
[D]And I got no idea where we're [C]goin' with this, no[G]
[D]I don't know where we're gonna land[G]
[D]And it might go better if w[C]e do it by the letter, so [G]
I nee[C]d to know[D] where I stand[G]
Killin' in a comedy club in Hollywood
After years of psychotherapy
You were gone forever
Now you say you're back for good
I swear to God you're gonna bury me
And the people all laugh but I'm dead on the inside
I'll do anything you demand
Well you tell me that you love me
Yet you won't even hug me
So I need[C] to know w[D]here I stand,[G]
Yes I need[C] to know w[D]here I stand[G]
Chorus
Would you plea-ea[D]se,[C] tel[G]l me if you[D] can, te[C]ll me[G] if y[D]ou can[C][G]
'Cause I ne[D]e-e[C]ed, [G]yes I need to k[C]now where[D] I stand[G]
Quiet in the kitchen of a cracker-jack box
In the hamlet of Wallkill
I miss you so much that it hurts me to talk
Yet you're standin' right in front of me still
And I'm reachin' for you, but you're fallin' away
This has gotten so outta hand
Well the world might end in a minute my friend
So I need to know where I stand
Yes I need to know where I stand
Chorus
Yeah I need to know where I stand,
Well I need to know where I stand
