Mess Around

C  Gm  Cm  D  Bb Gm  Cm  D

[Verse 1]
G                     Gm      
Feel like messing up, cutting my 
    Cm
teeth
          D                 
 On stolen candy, chewing on 
           Gm
something sweet
        G               Gm        
I don't know what, what I came 
   Cm
here for
D
Stumbling down these streets, trying
 to find your door

Gm                                
Take the long way 'round, long 
  Cm
walk across this town
      D
If I was any good at painting, I'd 
paint it up and down
Bb      Gm              Cm
  But I'm not, I'm just trying not 
to make a sound
D
Whistling to myself the Fourth 
Street Mess Around

[Chorus]
Bb Gm
   Mess around, mess around, mess 
around…
Cm
Mess around, mess around, mess 
around…
D         Bb
Oh.......yeah

[Instrumental]
C  Gm  Cm  D  Bb Gm  Cm  D

[Verse 2]
                     G   Gm 
Wanna tell it like it is from 
     Cm              C
heaven's point of view
G      D                         
But I would not have lived in 
                              Bb
vain if I could utter one thing true
       Gm                
Or not build this life so 
 D#        Cm
artificially
D                            
 Not go about it all so goddam 
        F    Bb
superficially

            Gm                  
Lay myself down, quit running so 
Cm
ragged
D                  C       D    
  Blaze me a trail just a little
       Bb
 less jagged
Gm                     Cm        
 But for now I'm just stuck here 
            G
in this town
D
Singing to myself the Fourth Street 
Mess Around

[Chorus]
Bb Gm
   Mess around, mess around, mess 
around…
Cm
Mess around, mess around, mess 
around…
D         Bb
Oh.......yeah
