If my body bore three souls could I be your perfect man? 
     A                                                                E 
I doubt it so cause you ask so much, I cant understand. 
E                                                                                           A 
I sit beside myself and stand up - three different ways 
           A                                                                 E 
And never ask of you what i hear sixteen times a day 
 
E 
Questions, oh these questions shower down on me 
A 
Tell me what makes a happy man in this go for gold society 
E 
And if this whole world were poor, would you lend a helping hand

I think that 's just what it is going to take for us to STOP ......and give a damn

Time and time again I fall short looking up at you - from my knees (x2)
