Intro: E Gbm A Abm B B7

Verse 1:
E                                 Gbm
Sometimes I have a flash of rationaltiy
         A      Abm                 B
But most times I do just what I'm gon' do
     E                       Gbm
It's easy for me to see what I already see
           A      Abm               B   B7
Ain't got time for inconvenient truths

Chorus 1:
A                 Abm
I'm just a man I ain't no machine
Gbm                 Abm
I do the math the way it suits me
A                          Abm
Don't get me wrong you're makin' some sense
   Gbm                  B7
But I think I'll go before I am convinced

Verse 2:
E                               Gbm
Sometimes I start to think I might be pretty smart
        A            Abm                B
Then I up and meet somebody who really is
                E
I put a lot of books in my cart
         Gbm
but I usually don't have the heart
            A           Abm                 B   B7
to keep on reading if I think I've got the jist

Chorus 2:
A                 Abm
I know just enough about enough stuff
Gbm                 Abm
To nod when you bring something up
A                         Abm
Talkin out of my ass is my M.O.
      Gbm                      B7
I'm trying to learn to say I don't know

Interlude: E Gbm A Abm B B7

Verse 1:
E                                 Gbm
Sometimes I have a flash of rationaltiy
         A      Abm                 B
But most times I do just what I'm gon' do
     E                       Gbm
It's easy for me to see what I already see
           A      Abm               B   B7
Ain't got time for inconvenient truths
