Call me a joker, call me a fool.

Right at this moment I'm totally cool.
C          C/E      F               
Clear as a crystal, sharp as a knife.

I feel like I'm in the prime of my life.

Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast.

I don't know how long this feeling will last.

Maybe it's only tonight.

Darling I  don't know why I go to extremes.

Too high or too low there ain't no in-betweens.
         Gm6/Bb     A7
And if I stand or I fall.

It's all or nothing at all.

Sometimes I don't know how much more I've got.
C          C/E   F  
Maybe I'm headed over the hill,
F                     C
Maybe I've set myself up for the kill.

Pre-Chorus
C/Bb                    F/A    
Tell me how much do you think you can take
C/G                       D/F#
until the heart in you is starting to break?
C/G           G             C
Sometimes it feels like it will.

You can be sure when I'm gone.

I won't be out there too long.

Darling I don't know why I go to extremes.

Bridge:
D                    Bb
Out of the darkness, into the light,
F                        C
leaving the scene of the crime,
D                       Bb                    F
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time.
Am                     F
Sometimes I lie awake, night after night,
C                   G
coming apart at the seams.
D                Bb
Eager to please, ready to fight.
F                  C
Why do I go to extremes?
