C#o      Co               Bo
Yesterday, I couldn't wait
                     A            C#o
I thought today was gonna be great
             Co          Bo
Now it's here, I'm a mess
                     A           C#o
I fell in love with you I confess
            Co            Bo
Out of phase, out of sync

I'm so confused I can only think in 



A
Figure of eight

Figure of eight

round and round

and never straight

to the point 

I'm trying to make
               C           D
my minds only working in a figure of eight

Feel my shoes touch the ground
From where I look they're upside down
Cheerful soles, happy feet
Not a clue they're 'bout to meet



A figure of eight
A figure of eight
Round and round
Never straight
To the point
I'm trying to make
My mind's only working in a figure of eight

Yesterday, I couldn't wait
I thought today was gonna be great
Set my sails, cruise along
What could possibly go wrong?



A figure of eight
A figure of eight
Round and round
Never straight
To the point
I'm trying to make
My mind's only working in a figure of eight



A figure of eight
A figure of eight
Round and round
Never straight
To the point
I'm trying to make
My mind's only working in a figure of eight
