Key:
G D Am C (x16) [Verse]
G D Am C So many planes in the air with people going somewhere
G D Am C And voices on the radio dials
G D Am C All of the signs pointing towards awesome times
G D Am C And the message is signed off with smiles
G D Am C I woke up on time and the shower was fine
G D Am C My exercise is better with practice
G D Am C I can stand on the scale, drop the bills in the mail
G D Am C D7 And walk out while suffocating in blackness [Chorus]
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C Except for the fact that it isn’t (what’s wrong with you?)
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C D7 Except for the fact that it isn’t (what’s wrong with you?)
Continues after the ad
[Verse]
G D Am C All the trees shake and fly tossing leaves in the sky
G D Am C A squirrel stops eating and sees me
G D Am C And he’s eating again 'cuz he sees I’m a friend
G D Am C And he knows he can just take it easy
G D Am C And the morning returns and the steamroller churns
G D Am C Till the highway is straightened and flattened
G D Am C And the sun comes and dangled at warm happy angles
G D Am C D7 And I wake up and wish I hadn’t [Chorus]
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C Except for the fact that it isn’t (what’s wrong with you?)
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C D7 Except for the fact that it isn’t (what’s wrong with you?) [Instrumental]
G D Am C (x4) [Verse]
G D Am C I can work on some stuff, I can stress when it’s tough
G D Am C I can make a to-do list and do it
G D Am C At the end of the day, I can sit back and say
G D Am C That’s one less and at least I got through it
G D Am C And there’s a roof and a floor and there’s walls and a door
G D Am C And there’s a table and chair and a bed
G D Am C So I must be okay so how come every day
G D Am C D7 I wake up and I wish I was dead [Chorus]
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C Except for the fact that it isn’t (what’s wrong with you?)
G D Am C So I must be out of my mind because everything is fine (nothing wrong)
G D Am C Except for the fact that it isn’t [Other]
G D Am C (x4)
