    The Connoisseur Of Great Excuse

  • Artist:

    Damien Rice

G5
Of all the foolish things to do
           E5
I became a connoisseur of great excuse
    C5
And my pessimistic past the blame
     D5               D5
Will never make this go away

G5
Of all the foolish things I?ve said
     E5
That keep me sleepy almost dead
    C5
I?m sorry if I?ve let you down
   D5                          D5
My eyes were closed, they?re open now

    G5
I'm waking up
     E5
I am waking up
     C5
I am waking up
   D5    D5
I awake

    G5
And this has all been said before
     E5
I?ve listened but then I ignored
   C5
My ears grew deaf, My head gave up
    D5                    D5
The junkie knows not when to stop

   G5
Of all the foolish alibis
    E5
The constipated push for why
     C5
I?ve had a blanket pulled over my eyes
   D5                   D5
Oh hush now baby don?t you cry

    G5
I'm waking up
     E5
I am waking up
     C5
I am waking up
   D5    D5
I awake

    G5
I'm waking up
            E5
Coming I am waking up
               C5
I'm ready I am waking up
   D5    D5
I awake
