I can't make my own decisions 
Or make any with precision 
Well, maybe you should tie me up 
So I don't go where you don't want me 

You say that I've been changing 
That I'm not just simply aging 
Yeah, how could that be logical? 
Just keep on cramming ideas down my throat 

Em                     B 
whoa oh...................... 

E5 
You don't have to believe me 
C#m 
But the way I, way I see it 
Em 
Next time you point a finger 
B 
I might have to bend it back 
G#m                                            A 
Or break it, break it off 
A 
Next time you point a finger 
B5 
I'll point you to the mirror 

Repeat  Intro 
If God's the game that you're playing 
Well, we must get more acquainted 
Because it has to be so lonely 
To be the only one who's holy 

It's just my humble opinion 
But it's one that I believe in 
You don't deserve a point of view 
If the only thing you see is you 

Em                     B 
whoa oh...................... 

E5 
You don't have to believe me 
C#m 
But the way I, way I see it 
Em 
Next time you point a finger 
B 
I might have to bend it back 
G#m                                            A5 
Or break it, break it off 
A5 
Next time you point a finger 
B5 
I'll point you to the mirror 

A 
This is the last second chance 
(I'll point you to the mirror) 
B 
I'm half as good as it gets 
(I'll point you to the mirror) 

A 
I'm on both sides of the fence 
B 
 (I'll point you to the mirror) 
C#m 
Without a hint of regret 
D#m 
I'll hold you to it 

E (Hold) 
I know you don't believe me 

C#m 
But the way I, way I see it 
A 
Next time you point a finger 
B 
I might have to bend it back 
G#m	C#m 
Or break it, break it off 
B 
Next time you point a finger 
A                                                   B 
I'll point you to the mirror 

E5 
I know you won't believe me 
C#m 
But the way I, way I see it 
A 
Next time you point a finger 
B 
I might have to bend it back 
G#m 
Then break it, break it off 
A5 
Next time you point a finger 
A5                                      B5 
I'll point you to the mirror
