Verse 1:
Am7 Gmaj7
Who wants to be right as rain
Am7 Gmaj7
It’s better when something is wrong
Am7 Gmaj7
You get excitement in your bones
Am7 Gmaj7
And everything you do’s a game
Am7 Gmaj7
When night comes and you’re on your own
Am7 Gmaj7
You can say “I chose to be alone”
Am7 Gmaj7
Who wants to be right as rain
Am7 Gmaj7
It’s harder when you’re on top
Prechorus:
D
‘Cause when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired, there ain’t…
Chorus:
Am7 Gmaj7
No room in my bed, as far as I’m concerned
Am7 Gmaj7
So wipe that dirty smile off, we
Am7 Gmaj7
Won’t be making up, I’ve cried my heart out
Am7 Gmaj7 G7 Am7
And now I’ve had enough of love
Verse 2:
Who wants to be riding high
When you just crumble back on down
You give up everything you are
And even then you don’t get far
They make believe that everything
Is exactly what it seems
But at least when you’re at your worst
You know how to feel things
Prechorus:
See when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired, there ain’t
Chorus
Bridge:
Am7 Gmaj7
Go ahead and steal my heart to make me cry again
G Abdim (or Bm6)
Cause it will never hurt as much as it did then, and
Am7 D
We were both right and no one had blame
Em Gmaj7 G7
But now I give up on this endless game
Verse 3:
Cause who wants to be right as rain
It’s better when something is wrong
I get excitement in my bones
Even though everything’s a strain
When night comes and I’m on my own
You should know I chose to be alone
Who wants to be right as rain
It’s harder when you’re on top
Prechorus:
Cause when hard work don’t pay off and I’m tired there ain’t
Chorus x2
Outro:
(repeat Am7 Gmaj7)
whoa-oa, yeah…
