All I can say is that my

Life is pretty plain 
  A5                         G5     E5    E5 E5 E5 E5
I like watching the puddles gather rain
    E5
And all I can do is just 
D5                     D5 D5
Pour some tea for two
    A5 
And speak my point of view
    G5        E5    E5 E5 
But it's not sane
E5            
It's not sane

2nd Chorus
        E5
(And I) don't understand why I
D5             D5 D5
sleep all day.
      A5                      G5         E5     E5 E5 E5 E5
and I start to complain that there's no rain.
E5
and all I can do is read a 
D5             D5 D5
book to stay awake 
   A5                     G5              E5
It rips my life away but it's a great escape   **Lead plays Figure 1 four times with double whole strums on each
