My eyes are dry but they^?re bloodshot

I believe in the Prozac nation
G D C D
You play doctor but I^?ve lost patience
CHORUS:

Call the police and call the press

But please dear God don^?t tell my friends
C D G
This is where it ends, this is where it ends
(repeat second and third part of intro)
VERSE CHORDS:
Where^?s my pride, where^?s my self-esteem

Make excuses for behavior
Can my illness be my savior
Hid my heart while you still gave yours…CHORUS

G D C D
I say I want someone else to stand behind me and write it all down
