F#	    
I'm glad to see you
B
I had a funny dream
	Bbm	   Abm
You were wearing funny shoes
	Bbm	   Abm
You were going to a dance
	Bbm				Ebm	Bbm  	C#   C#sus4  C#
You were dressed like a punk but you were too young to remember


F#
Glad to see you
B
I'm outside the house 
	Bbm	      Abm
I'm not thinking right today
     Bbm	      Abm
I've got no energy
	Bbm		Ebm
I'm glad that you were waiting with me
		Bbm	 C#	      
Tell me all about your day

Ebm		Bbm
Breaking off is misery
	Ebm	     Bbm
I see a wilderness for you and me
     Ebm		Bbm
Punctuated by philosophy
	Abm		B	   F#
And a wondering how things could've been


F#
I'm happy for you
B
You've made it hard for me
	Bbm	     Abm
I counted on your company
	Bbm		Abm
You were staying with your friends tonight
	Bbm		Ebm
I'm feeling sorry for myself
		Bbm		C#
I keep taking everything to be to be a sign

F#
I'm happy for you
B
Now I know this hurt is poison
Bbm	      Abm
Too sharp to be bled
Bbm		Abm
I'm sitting on my empty bed
	Bbm
On my empty bed
   Ebm		 Bbm		C#
At night the fever grows it's pounding pounding

Ebm		Bbm
I'd rather be in Tokyo
	Ebm		Bbm
Id rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
	Ebm		Bbm
Watch the Sunday gang in Harajuku
	Abm		B		F#
There's something wrong with me, I'm a cuckoo

F#	     B
Scary moment, lovin' every moment
     Bbm			Abm
I was high from playing shows
	Bbm		Abm
We lost a singer to her clothes
    Bbm			Abm
My trouble raised its ugly head
	Bbm
I was revealed
	Ebm	
And I was home in bed
Bbm	C#
I was a kid again

F#		B
Jesus told me, go after every coin 
	Bbm		 Abm
Like it was the last in the world
	Bbm		Abm
And protect the wayward child
	Bbm
But I'm a little lost sheep
	Ebm
I need my Bo peep
  		Bbm		C#
I know I need my Shepherd here tonight

Ebm		Bbm
Breaking off is misery
	Ebm	     Bbm
I see a wilderness for you and me
     Ebm		Bbm
Punctuated by philosophy

F#
Id like to see you
B
But really I should stay away
   Bbm		Abm
And let you settle down
	Bbm		Abm
I've got no claims to your crown
	Bbm
I was the boss of you
	Ebm
And I loved you
You know I loved you
    Bbm	      C#		
It's all over now

F#		B
I was there for you
When you were lonely
	Bbm		Abm
I was there when you were sad
	Bbm		Abm
I was there when you were bad
	Bbm
Now it's my time of need
	   Ebm				Bbm	C#
Im thinking, do I have to plead to get you by my side?

Ebm		Bbm
I'd rather be in Tokyo
	Ebm		Bbm
Id rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh
