See Yourself Lyrics

    pre>surupa nile <grovecenter@saber.net> wrote with some corrections
    For this one. it is played inm open tuning (how i don't know)
    But surupa worked out that the weird chord was adim/e 0x1212
    Based on what surupa said the chords were this is my version.

    C c
    Can you crawl out of the darkness of that dungeon where you're hangin'
    F c
    Can you dismantle the cross you've had to bear
    C c
    Can you prize the lid right open on all that fancy footwork
    F g
    And set fire to the shoes you've had to wear
    C adim/e
    Just because the mud's there doesn't mean you have to wallow
    F c
    Doesn't mean you have to be hollow in the head
    C adim/e
    And just because your mouth's full doesn't mean you have to swallow
    F g
    Doesn't mean you have to believe what you just said

    Chorus
    C adim/e
    You should see yourself baby you lack vision
    F c
    You should see yourself get a pair of eyes
    C adim/e
    You should see yourself go to your optician
    F c
    You should see yourself through that framework of lies
    C f c c f c
    See yourself see yourself

    Can you find that little dictator that's living in your basement
    Can you stage a coup to take that idiot out
    Can you organise your senses as if they were an army
    And march them off to off that little lout
    Just because you're english doesn't mean you have to be narrow
    Doesn't mean you have to be shallow and uptight
    Just because you're pale it doesn't mean you have to be callow
    Doesn't mean you have to believe you're always right

    Chorus
    You should see yourself baby you lack vision
    You should see yourself through the eyes of the world
    You should see yourself and your clockwork ambition
    You should see yourself or would you rather go blind
    See yourself see yourself

    Can you take this little megaphone and push it in your eardrum
    Can you try to listen very carefully
    Can you stare up at that wall chart and look at those red letters
    Can you try to read them through from a to z
    Just because it's funny doesn't mean you have to be foolish
    Doesn't mean you have to wish you ruled this world
    And just because it's sunny
    Doesn't mean you have to blot the sun out
    Doesn't mean your lips always have to curl

    Repeat 1st chorus

    Chorus
    You should see yourself everybody else can
    You should see yourself it's not a pretty sight
    You should see yourself through those crocodile tear glands
    You should see yourself or would you rather go blind
    See yourself see yourself /pre>
