[Intro] EG#C#mAmEBAE
[Primera Parte]
EG#
In lipstick on the mirror
C#mA
Are the lyrics to my obituary
EG#
In iambic pentameter, followed parameter
C#mA
Crossing my eyes, dot my T's
EG#
I was delivered holding scissors
C#mA
I live deliberately, I’m a quitter
C#m
And a winner anyway
F#mB
Cause I never agreed to participate in this game
AB
Won't follow my dreams
EC#m
No, they’ve all got me waking up screaming
F#m
I can’t let them go for me
BC
After all there is no “I” in team
[Estribillo]
FA
And I'd rather be normal. Yes, so normal
DmBb
I suggest that we keep this informal
FADmBb
‘Cause a normal human being wouldn't need
FA
To pretend to be normal, to be normal
DmBb
Well I guess that's the least that I owe ya!
FDmGmC
To be normal in a way I couldn’t be, yeah yeah
BbCFADmBbm
C’mon, c’mon, and love me normally
( FCBbFDb )
[Segunda Parte]
EG#
If I could live in third person
C#m
Well I don’t think life would be
A
Much worse than it is
E
In the current tense, presently
G#
This sentence ending with
C#mA
Question marks or dot dot dot
EG#
Is it courageous or escapist
C#mA
To leave the quarantine when you’re contagious?
F#m
It may just be a cold
B
And besides I don’t wanna get old yeah
AB
I drank myself to death
EC#m
To be the afterlife of the party
F#m
When the afterparty came
BC
I was rolling in my grave
[Estribillo]
FA
And I'd rather be normal. Yes, so normal
DmBb
I suggest that we keep this informal
FADmBb
‘Cause a normal human being wouldn't need
FA
To pretend to be normal, to be normal
DmBb
Well I guess that's the least that I owe ya!
FDmGmC
To be normal in a way I couldn’t be, yeah yeah
BbCFADmBbm
C’mon, c’mon, and love me normally

[Ponte 1]
E
Now this is the part of the song
G#
Where I like to talk to my audience
C#m
I like to tell 'em there's something I want
A
From you hep cats tonight
E
I want you to look to your left
G#
Look to your right
Your 12 o'clock, three o'clock, six o'clock
C#mA
Nine o'clock, rock around the clock tonight
E
And I want you to find those points of no return
G#
Those singularities, those burning rings of fire
C#m
In the beautiful pupils and the beautiful eyes
A
Of the beautiful boy, girl, neither, both
E
Or in-between that you brought with you tonight
G#
And I want you to tell 'em how you really feel
C#mA
I want you to love the way they so seamlessly
E
Like a dream for me
G#
So beautifully, oh so dutifully
C#m
Jam that square peg in the
A
Round hole in their hearts!
E
I want you to tell 'em that you love the way
G#C#m
That they don't stick out like sore middle fingers
A
That they crawl their way up the side of the bell curve
E
Stick their flag in the peak
G#
And slide their way back down!
C#m
I want you to tell them that you love the way
A
That they're not maladaptive
Not malcontent
E
Not malignant or maleficent
G#
But rather that you love them
C#m
Exactly the way that everybody else is!
[Ponte 2]
AB
I was nothing before
EC#m
So I couldn’t have asked to be born
AB
I'll be nothing again
EC#m
So what am I between now and then?
AB
Is there nothing to fear?
G#C#m
Cause shit's getting weird!
F#m
So to God who made this man
BC
You better have one hell of a plan!
[Estribillo]
FA
And I'd rather be normal. Yes, so normal
DmBb
I suggest that we keep this informal
FADmBb
Cause a normal human being wouldn't need, no
FA
To pretend to be normal, to be normal
DmBb
Well I guess that's the least that I owe ya!
