Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
My [C]heart is on my sleeve
my head is in the sand
I said, [F]"How did we end up here?"
You said happenstance
And I [C]didn't understand
so I made other plans
And I [F]ran to the ocean
washed the blood off of my hands
I [C]washed away my tears
washed away ten years
[F]Washed away the empty space
in-between my ears
And you [C]said, "All that I mean is that
you and me
Didn't [F]meet because of fate
but rather probability"
And you [C]said, "The truth's like corn
and lies are like weeds"
You said the [F]Schrödinger equation
collapsed perfectly
And I [C]said, "Mercy me, be patient, please
'Cause I don't [F]know a goddam thing
about the birds and the bees
I just [C]know what I'm like
and I'm like what I see
Even [F]though it's hard to see
because you just blinded me
And if there's [C]one thing I learned
in chemistry
It's that the [F]gain of electrons
is reduction, obviously
But you [C]can't see electrons without machines
And you can't [F]tell from my inflection
if I'm being mean
And [C]I don't know if I can take you seriously
Some[F]times elections
depend on the absentees"

[Chorus 1]
And my [G]family and my [F]friends
And all the little kids that love me
make me [C]strong[F][C]
And no [G]matter how this [F]ends
I know I'll never ever ever be a[C]lone[F][C]

[Bridge 1]
Some [G]day I'll [F]be an [C]old lady
With a [G]big dress and an [F]ap ron
A ba[C]bushka and bare feet
I'll be [G]out in my [F]garden
On my [C]hands and knees
And I'll be [G]singing a song
That is [F]really sad and

[Interlude 1]
[C](sweet)[F][C][C][F][C]

[Outro 1]
[F]Mommy (mommy) and [G]daddy (daddy)
your baby is [C]grown[F][C]
And the [F]smell of the cold, wet [G]dirt
reminds me of [C]home[F][C]
