Do you have the time to listen to me whine about nothing and everything all at once?

I am one of those melodramatic fools; neurotic, to the bone, no doubt about it.

*Chorus*
A5	      B5            E5
  Sometimes I give myself the creeps.
  Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me.
  It all keeps adding up.
E5  E        D       C#m
I think I'm cracking up
  A5           B5 		E5
Am I just paranoid?  Am I just stoned?

I went to a shrink to analyze my dreams.  She says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down.
went to a whore (ect....)

*Chorus*

Grasping to control  So I better hold on.
