Intro: D# A# C# D# 

D#    
Come on out, come on out, 
A# 
Where'd you go, where'd you go? 
C#             D# 
I don't mean to play here 

D# 
Figure out, figure out 
A# 
What you know, what you know 
C#                D# 
Figure out how to say it clear 

F#                 C#            D#         A#         F# F A# D# 
Cause you're more likely to get cut with a dull tool,  

than a sharp one 

A#                     
You, you stuck around, 
C#       
You stuck around, 
D#      G 
You stuck around, 
        C 
Until you got me 
A     G#       G 
Then, then you got me 


 A#       
You, You don't kiss when you kiss, 
 C# 
You don't fuck when you fuck 
 D#                           G                          C      A G# G 
You don't say what you mean, you don't talk not enough 
No possible, impossible patience 
Impossible 



You forgot the difference between equanimity and passivity 
You forgot you have to try, you have to try, you have to try 
You forgot that glorious feeling that you get when you get the truth 
So tell that girl you don't love her 
And if you do, tell her two times 
Cause you're more likely to get cut with a dull tool, than a sharp one 

Chorus (x3)
