Reasons Not To Be An Idiot

A
You're not as messed up as you think you are

Your self-absorption makes you messier
                                                  F#m
Just settle down and you will feel a whole lot better
                            D    E        A
Deep down you're just like everybody else

VERSE 2

A
She's not as pretty as she thinks she is

Just picture her after she's had kids
                                            F#m
I bet she sits at home and listens to The Smiths
                            D   E       A
Deep down she's just like everybody else

CHORUS

Bm                    E
So why are you sat at home?
                               A
You're not designed to be alone
                             F#m
You just got used to saying "no"

So get up and get down and get outside
Bm                        E
Cos it's a lovely sunny day
                        A
But you hide yourself away
                              F#m
You've only got yourself to blame
                 D           E     A
Get up and get down and get outside

VERSE 3

A
He's not as clever as he likes to think

He's just ambitious with his arguing
                                                  F#m
He's crap at dancing, yeah and he can't hold his drink
                           D   E       A
Deep down he's just like everybody else

VERSE 4

A
I'm not as awesome as this song makes out

I'm angry, underweight and sketching out
                                            F#m
I'm building bonfires on my vanities and doubts
                       D    E       A
To get warm just like everybody else

Repeat the CHORUS ^

E                                   G
Amy thinks that life is lacking in drama
                                               D
So she fell for horoscopes, faith-healing and karma
                                       Bm
She's so wrapped up in her invisible armour
                         E
She'll never grow into herself
                                                      G
And it's OK thinking me and all my friends are just wasters
                                                         D
But saying that I can still see through her heirs and graces
                                              Bm
I bet she's scared her life won't leave any traces
                          E
Caught up like everyone else
                      D
That's not the point anyway
  E                                       D
Oh darling, I felt compelled to call you up to say...

Repeat the Chorus
