It's A Bitch To Grow Up Tom: G Intro: G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 10 years of investment
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been one foot in and one out
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 4 days of full of shit
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
And I feel snuffed out
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
It's been 33 years of restraining
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Of trying to control this tumult
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
How I did invest in such fantasy
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But my nervous system has worn out
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I've repeated this dance ad-nauseum
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
There's still something to learn that I've not
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I'm told to see this as divine perfection
G Cadd9 G
But my bones don't feel this perfection
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 4
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
I've spent life hovering above bottom
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
Thinking I can't survive what's below
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
But I've known through the kicking and screaming
G Cadd9 G Cadd9
That there was no other direction to go
Em D Bm C
I feel done, I feel raked over coals
Em D C
And all that remains is the case
That it's a bitch to grow up
G Cadd9 x 26
Break Tom: F#m Intro: F#m--Bm--E--C#m
F#m Bm
Indeed I
E C#m F#m Bm
have sucked it up to heights
E C#m F#m Bm
Unknown to those outside
E C#m F#m Bm
My body has contained and suppressed
E C#m F#m Bm
And swallowed and abetted, oh I
E C#m F#m Bm
Oh I am a stranger to myself
E C#m F#m Bm
Beneath altruism dwells
E C#m F#m Bm
A force uncontended a voice that is tempered
E C#m
Too boiled and unhindered
F#m Bm
Who am I kidding?
E C#m F#m Bm
I am not some Mother Theresa
E C#m F#m Bm
If I don't say something soon
E C#m F#m Bm
I will break from the weight of the high load I take
E C#m
Nooooo
Indeed I need my chance to fail Some room to unravel I need a chance to blame for two minutes Unbridled, unbrazened So I need imaginings of maiming Fantasies of outright screaming I need a chance to thrash for minutes Uncontained, unforgiving
(Chorus)
D C#m D I will move beyond, I'm certain of that The sooner I go the quicker I'll be back I would not threaten or cause you any harm Have to get this out or my light will go out
(Chorus)
Celebrity Tom: Dm Intro: Dm Gm Dm A
Dm Gm Dm A I have tasted stardom still before I breathed My well-known hungry daddy modeled it for me And I have never left this ambitious city And I've only known a lust for VIP I have studied long and hard had to proceed Nothing but my name in bright lights called to me And I display the perfect amount of ennui I'll carve my face up if you'll indulge me
Dm Bb Dm A7 Give me celebrity my kingdom to be famous Tell me who I have to be starving to be famous
Dm Gm Dm A Never wonder who's pulling strings above me Cause I'm aware of wheels, heels, and vintage Gucci I'm on my twentieth round of vitamin v And I'll cut my weight in two if you'll have me
(Chorus)
Bb Am Bb C Am Bb Am Bb C Am Dm Let me into this exclusive club, ignore my not so hidden agenda
Dm Gm Dm A I am a tatooed sexy damcing monkey just aloof enough to get you to want me hoping my persona ingratiates me give my life for an opportunity
(Chorus)
Pollyanna Flower Tom: G
G F# G Between a broken nose and a fake smile Between piety and gunpowder Between fighting and fleeing the scene Between murder and diplomacy
G F# G Between aggression and oblivion Between brutal and realistically well behaved Between screaming and pulling in the reins Esus4 E Between tiptoeing and ambleing
Bm F# Bm F# What am I to do with all this fire (I'd like to hit you but I'd never hit you) Bm F# Bm F# Would you stay with me in this red space (I'd like to slap you but I'd never slap you)
Chorus E Between violence and silently seething E Between my fist and my pollyanna flower E Between "fuck you" to your face and it's alright E Between war and denial
[chorus]
Between flying vases and secretly weeping Between loose cannons and ever downplaying Between bruises and rudely differing Between bursting and boiling
What am I to do with all this burning (I'd like to hurt you but I'd never hurt you) Do I overwhelm you in this place (I'd like to kill you but I'd never kill you)
[chorus]
What am I to do with all this fire Can you understand me in this place?
Spiral Tom: E
E Abm A I could be daydreaming but for a moment and somehow they're creeping back in I could be sleeping and wake in a torrent somehow I get cought in their grips again
A B C#m B

A B C#m B E
and you bring the light back in.... ooooh
E B A don't leave me here with all these critical voices cause they do the best to bring me down, bring me down when I'm alone with all these negative voices I will need your help to turn them down, turn them round
E Abm A I could be listening to a conversation a story I'm not even in these voices have their way when I am unguarded suddenly I step in quicksand again

Once again in my shame spiral
A B C#m B E
I am glad that you weigh in... ooooh

C#m B F#m B
All these judgements so incisive
C#m B A B
voices left to their devices
C#m B F#m B C#m
this woman's neuroses a desperate plea
A B E B A E B A E
for slack to be cut to me.... cut to meeeeeeee... oooh
E B A don't leave me here with all these critical voices cause they do the best to bring me down, bring me down when I'm alone with all these negative voices I will need your help to turn them down, turn them round
Til You Tom: Bb
Bb F Gm Eb I've been wasting time clawing my way to you Cm Dm Bb F Taking no prisoners with my romantic crimes Bb F Gm Eb Ebm I've been holding out imaging glimpses of you Cm Dm Bb F Holding my breath while you come down the pike
Bb F Gm Eb
Spinning my wheels round
Cm Dm Bb F
I'm here dodging bullets til you
Bb F Gm Eb
Ear to the ground
Cm Dm Bb F
I'm here dodging bullets til you
I've been taking notes Nursing the thought of you Research and deliver cuz I'm biding my time I've been holding on this magnet that calls to you Entertaining myself with these consolation prizes
(CHORUS)
They've been plenty fun But mere peace holders to you They feel the stance card As you form in my mind
(CHORUS)
Outro: Bb F Gm Eb Cm Dm Bb F
Empathy Tom: E Intro: E--B--A--A
E B A E B A There are so many parts that I have hidden and denied and lost There are so many ways that I have cut off my nose to spite my face There are so many colors that I still try to hide while I paint And there are so many tunes that I secretly sing as I wait
E B A E B A You come along and invite these parts out of hiding This invitation is the one that I've stopped fighting....
E B A E B A
Thank you for seeing me I feel so less lonely
E B A E B A
Thank you for getting me I'm healed by
E B A E B A
your empathy, oh this intimacy
E B A E B A There were so many times, I thought I'd die not being truly known There've been so many moments: forever lonely in my vocation
E B A E B A You come along and celebrate each feeling And there you are all honor and inquiring.......
(Chorus)
C#m B A
There was a day where the trust that was being asked of me
C#m B A B C#m B A B
Required too much you see to accept your generosity
C#m B A B E
And to know myself enough to let you help me
Chorus)
Guardian Tom: G Intro: G D C Am7
G C You, you who has smiled when you?re in pain G C You who has soldiered through the profane G C G C They were distracted and shut down

G C Now no more smiling mid crestfall G C No more managing unmanageables G C G No more holding still in the hailstorm
C9 Now enter your watchwoman
G D C Am7 I?ll be your keeper for life as your guardian G D C Am7 I?ll be your warrior of care your first warden G D C Am7 I?ll be your angel on call, I?ll be on demand G D C Am7 The greatest honor of all, as your guardian
Orchid Tom: G Intro: G Em (x2)
(Verse 1)
G Em Me and my helmet
G Em Such an unconventional kid
G Em All intense and kinetic
Am D At best, tolerated from afar
(Verse 2)
G Em Not yet arrested
G Em and by that, I mean betrothed
G Em Though at start, I am duly courted
Am D I've just not been trusted with altars
(Chorus 1)
G Em I'm a sweet piece of work
G Em Well intentioned, yet disturbed
Am C Wrongly labeled and underfed
Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid
G Em (x2) .......(Interlude)..........
(Verse 3)
G Em My friends as they weigh in
G Em Get understandably protective
G Em They have a hard time being objective
Am D So inside we cancel each other out
(Chorus 2)
G Em I'm a sweet piece of work
G Em Well intentioned, and unnerved
Am C Enabled and misunderstood
Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Middle Eight)
G Bm You've brought water to me
G Bm Making sure my bloom rebounds
G Bm You know best of what my special care allows...
(Verse 3)
G Em So I've lived in my blind spot
G Em Thought myself usual when I'm not
G Em In your garden is a nice spot
Am D As long as it is brave and where you are
(Chorus 3)
G Em For this sweet piece of work
G Em High maintenance and deserted
Am C I've been different and deserving
Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Chorus 4)
G Em Sweet piece of work
G Em Overwhelmed, unobserved
Am C I've been bowed down to but so misread
Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid
(Ending)
G Em (play to fade or end on G...) (Ad Lib vocal embellishments to fade or til final G...)
Not All Me Tom: G
G C G C I wear their faces all on top of my face
G C G C I am the perfect target screen for your blindly fuelled rage
G C G C I bear the brunt of your long buried pain
G C G C I don't mind helping you out but I want you to remember my name
Chorus
G C It's not all me
G C It's not all my fault
G C I may remind you
D C But I won't take it all on
Verse G C G C Past riddled rage I see the buttons I engage
G C G C With my dignity in place I'm all too happy to assuage
Chorus
Bridge
D G D C Lest I find my voice find the strength to stand up to you
D G D C Lest I stay to my limit and take on only what is mine to
Verse

Moratorium Tom: Bbm Intro:
Bbm F Bbm F I’ve never been this accountable-less and within Bbm F Bbm F I’ve never known focusless-ness on any form Bbm F Bbm F I’ve never had this lack of ache for dalliance, Bbm F Bbm F To let go, and let god in ways I have never even imagined
Bbm F
I declare a moratorium on things relationship
Bbm F
I declare a respite from the toils of liaison
Bbm F
I do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement
Bbm F
I declare a full time out from all things commitment

(Chorus)
Citizen Of The Planet Tom: C# Intro: C#5 B5 A5 G#5
C#5 B5
I start up in the north
A5
I grow from special seed
G#5 C#5 B5
I sprinkle it with sensibility from French and Hungarian snow
A5 G#5
I linger in the sprouting until my engine’s full
(C#5 B5 A5 G#5) Then I move across the sea To European bliss To language of poets As I cut the cord of home I kiss my mother’s mother Look to the horizon
(C#5 B5 A5 G#5) Wide eyed, new ground Humbled by my new surroundings
C#5 D#5 D5 I am a citizen of the planet C#5 D#5 D5 My president is kwan yin C#5 D#5 D5 My frontier is on an airplane C#5 D#5 D5 My prisons: homes for rehabilitating
C#5 B5 A5 G#5
(C#5 B5 A5 G#5) Then I fly back to my nest I fly back with my nuclear but everything is different So I wait, my yearn for home is broadened, Patriotism expanded by calling from beyond So I pack my things nothing precious all things sacred
(C#5 D#5 D5) I am a citizen of the planet My laws are all of attraction My punishments are consequences Separating from source the original sin
(C#5 D#5 D5) I am citizen of the planet Democracy’s kids are sovereign Where the teachers are the sages And pedestals fill with every parent
(C#5 B5 A5 G#5) And so, the next few years are blurry The next decades’ a flurry of smells and tastes unknown Threads sewn straight, through this fabric, Through fields of every color, one culture to another
(C#5 B5 A5 G#5) I come alive and I get giddy I am taken and globally naturalized
(C#5 D#5 D5) I am a citizen of the planet From simple roots through high vision I am guarded by the angels My body guides the direction I go in
(C#5 D#5 D5) I am a citizen of the planet My favorite pastime edge stretching Besotten with human condition These ideals are borne from my deepest within
Tapes Tom: Bm Intro: Bm D G A
Bm D G
I am someone easy to leave
A Bm
even easier to forget
A F#m
a voice if inaccurate
Bm D G
Again I'm the one they all run from
A Bm
diatribes of clouded sun
D F#m A
someone help me find the pause button
Bm G
All these tapes in my head swirl around
Bm
keeping my vide down
G
all these thought in my head aren't my own
A
wreaking havoc
Bm D G
I'm too exhausting to be loved
A Bm
a volatile chemical
D F#m A
best to quarantine and cut off
Bm G
All these tapes in my head swirl around
Bm
keeping my vide down
G
all these thought in my head aren't my own
Bm
wreaking havoc
G
All these tapes in my head swirl around
Bm
keeping my vide down
G
all these thought in my head aren't my own
A
wreaking havoc
Bm D G
I'm but thorn in your sweet side
A Bm
You’ll be better off without me
D F#m
it'd be best to leave at once
Bm G
All these tapes in my head swirl around
Bm
keeping my vide down
G
all these thought in my head aren't my own
Bm
wreaking havoc
G
Oohhhhhooohhhh

Front Row Tom: A
I Know he's blood but you can't still turn him away, you don't owe him anything
A Do you go to the dungeon to find out how to make peace with your days in the dungeon, writing a letter to you didn't make me feel anymore peaceful then how I felt when we weren't speaking 'Cause I didn't cop to what I did. I can't love you 'cause we're supposed to have professional boundaries.I'd like you to be schooled and in awe as though you were kissed by God full on the lips
E F#m C#m E D
I'm in the front row, the front row with popcorn
E F#m C#m E D
I get to see you, see you close up
A Slid into the ditch I have this overwhelming loss of ambition, we said let's name thirty good reasons Why we shouldn't be together. I started by saying things like you smoke, you live in New Jersey You started saying things like you belong to the world, all of wich could have been easily refuted But the conversation was hypothetical I am totally short of breath for you, why can't you shut your stuff off...
Chorus
A ...For a while while I'm speaking. You know how much you hate to be interrupted, maybe spend some time alone fill up your proverbial cup, so that it doesn't always have to be about you I've been wanting your undivided attention. I like the fact that you're nothing like me Are you not burdened by the lack of perspective people have of your charmed life (seemingly)?
Chorus
A Hey I'm not mad at you guardian, I'm mad at myself for spending so much time with you and your jeckyl and hydeness. I'm glad I figuratively slapped you on the wrist. You laughed a wicked laugh and said come here let me clip your wings. I know he's blood but you can't still turn him away you don't owe him anything. Raise the roof he yelled, yeah raise the roof I yelled back. Unfortunately you needed a health scare to reprioritize. No thanks to the soap box, having me rile agaisnt them won't make na ounce of difference

These Are The Thoughts
Tom: D
Intro: e ------------------------------------
B ---------------15-------------------
G ---14--13--14----------------------- 8x
Intro riff
These are the thoughts - that go through my head
In my backyard on a - sunday afternoon
When I have the house - to myself and I am not
Expending all that energy on fighting
Bm G D
With my boyfriend
D ( intro riff )
Is he the one - that I will marry
And why is it so hard - to be objective about
Myself why do I feel - cellularly alone
Am I supposed to live - in this crazy city
Bm G D
Can blindly continued fear-induced regurtitated life-denying tradition
Be overcome
D ( intro riff )
Where does the mo - ney go that I send
To those in need, if we - have so much why do some people have
Nothing still why do - I feel frantic when I
Bm
First wake up in the morning - why do you say you are spiritual
G D
Yet you treat people like shit
D
How can you say - you're close to God
And yet you talk behind - my back as though I'm not
A part of you, why do - I say "I'm fine" when it's
Bm
Obvious I'm not, - why's it so hard to tell you what I want
G D
Why can't you just read my mind?
Intro riff
Why do I fear - that the quieter I am
The less you will listen - why do I care whether you like me
Or not why's it so hard - for me to be angry
Bm
Why is it such work to stay - conscious and so easy to get stuck
G D
And not the other way around
D ( intro riff )
Will I ever move - back to Canada can
I be with a lover - with whom I am a student
And a master, oh why am I - encouraged to shut my
Mouth when it gets too close - to home, why cannot I
Bm G D
Live in the moment

Not the Doctor Tom: D(add4)
D(add4) I don't want to be the filler
If the void is solely yours
I don't want to be your glass of single malt whiskey
Hidden in the bottem drawer and
I don't want to be a bandage if the wound is not mine
Let me some fresh air
I don't want to be adored for what I
Merely represent to you
I don't want to be your baby sitter
You're a very big boy now
I don't want to be your mother I didn't
Carry you in my womb for nine months
Show me the back door
Bb5 C5
Chorus: Visiting hours are nine to five
D5
And if I show up at ten past six will I
Bb5 C5 D5
Already know that you'd find someway to sneak me in and oh
Bb5 C5 D5
Mind the empty bottles with holes along the bottem
Em7
You see it's too much to ask for and I
C6
Am not the doctor
D(ADD4) I don't want to be the sweeper
Of the eggshells that you walk upon
I don't want to be your other half
I believe that one and one make two
I don't want to be your food or the light
From the fridge on your face at midnight hey
What are you hungry for
D(add4) I don't want to be the glue that holds your pieces together
I don't want to be your idol, see this
Pedestal is high and I'm afraid of heights
I don't want to be lived through a vicarious occasion please
Open the window
Chorus
D(add4) I don't want to live on someday
When my motto is last week and I
Don't want to be responsible for your
Fractured heart and it's wounded beat
I don't want to be a substitute for the smoke you've been inhaling well
What do you thank me
What do you thank me for

21 things i want in a lover Tom: Am
(Am, C , G , F ,C)
do you derive joy when someone else succeeds? do you not play dirty when engaged in competition? do you have a big intellectual capacity but know that it alone does not equate wisdom? do you see everything as an illusion? but enjoy it even though you are not of it? are you both masculine and feminine? politically aware? and don't believe in capital punishment?
Am C G F C these are 21 things that I want in a lover Am C G F C not necessarily needs but qualities that I prefer (Am, C , G , F ,C)
do you derive joy from diving in and seeing that loving someone can actually feel like freedom? are you funny? à la self-deprecating? like adventure? and have many formed opinions?
CHORUS Am C G F C I figure I can describe it since I have a choice in the matter Am C G F C these are 21 things I choose to choose in a lover (Am, C , G , F ,C) I'm in no hurry I could wait forever I'm in no rush cuz I like being solo there are no worries and certainly no pressure in the meantime I'll live like there's no tomorrow (Am, C , G , F ,C) are you uninhibited in bed? more than three times a week? up for being experimental? are you athletic? are you thriving in a job that helps your brother? are you not addicted?
...curious and communicative...
