Excuses
Alanis Morissette
D A G A
Why no one will help me i am too dumb i am too smart
D A G A
they'll not understand me i am lonely they'll hate me
D A G A
and there is not enough time its too hard to help me
D A G A
and god wants me to work no resting no lazy
D Gm D
these excuses how they served me so well
Dm D
they kept me safe they kept me stuck
Gm D
they kept me locked in my own cell
D A G A
im too far from home it takes far too much energy
D A G A
and i cannot afford to no one will ever see me
D Gm D
these excuses how they served me so well
Dm D
they kept me safe they kept me stuck
Gm D
they kept me locked in my own cell
D Gm D
these excuses how they're so familiar
Dm D
they kept me blocked they kept me small
Gm D
they kept me safe inside my shell
D G
bringing these into the light shakes their foundation
A D G
and clears my sight now my imagination is the only thing
A D
that limits the bar and it's rise to the heights
D A
no one can have it all
G A
i see i have to, they want me to
D A
and i can't let them down
G A
I will never be happy
Chorus
