Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I know a man who fills his
[Am]emptiness
[C]With strangers[G]
I know a girl who drinks herself to
[Am]Sleep at night
You can't [C]change [G]her
I know people who use
chat rooms [Bm]as
Confes[Em]sionals
I know [Bm]down and outs who once were,
[Em]Once they were professionals
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]perior[Em]ity
[C]Don't roll your eyes [G]my sweet

[Verse 2]
I know [G]a single mother [Am]who loses
Her mind
On [C]weekends[G]
She pleads with lady luck on scratch
Cards with [Am]money lent to her
By [C]old [G]friends
I know [Bm]people [G]who take midnight
[Bm]Drives [Em]for head space
I [Bm]know they'd give for just one
[Em]Loving embraces
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]periority
[Em]Don'[C]t roll your eyes my sweet

[Verse 3]
We're [G]just the same
We all get [Am]desperate sometimes
[C]Feeling [B]black and [Em]blue
[Eb]I know you'll find[G] it hard
To ac[Am]cept it sometimes
We [Bm]all feel black and [C]we feel blue
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]perior[Em]ity
[C]Don't roll your eyes [G]my sweet

[Verse 4]
I know [G]a rich man who has
everything
You could [Am]wish for
But chil[C]dren[G]
I know an old lady who talks a lot but
Could [Am]teach you
If you [C]listen[G]
I know people who believe
in [Bm]gods [Em]and demons
I know [Bm]ones who think there's nothing
[G]There at [Em]all
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]perior[Em]ity
[C]Don't roll your eyes my sweet

[Verse 5]
We're [G]just the same
We all get [Am]desperate sometimes
[C]Feeling [B]black and [Em]blue
[Eb]I know you'll find[G] it hard
To ac[Am]cept it sometimes
We [Bm]all feel black and [C]we feel blue
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]perior[Em]ity
[C]Don't roll your eyes [G]my sweet

[Verse 6]
[Am]Wipe it off [Em]your sleeve
Your su[Am]periority
[Em]Don'[C]t roll your eyes my sweet
[G]
