Lyrics

[Intro]
| Em - | D A | Em - | D A |

[Verse 1]
Em                D                       Em
  I learned politeness on my mother's knee
G                                             D
 I learned by uprightness my number of friends should
increase
Em                  D                    Em
  When I think about the things I've done
G
 I laugh out loud to no one
D
 Yeah to no one

[Chorus]
Em
  Coz it's so hard to meet
The eyes that I see
                     D/F#        G
When I try to open up    my heart
                                               D
There's something inside me 'n I know it's good
                     Bm           Em
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile;
D          A              Em
 there's a laugh 'n a half

[Verse 2]
Em               D                   Em
  But I became honest Mister Mistaken
G                                      D
 In spite of the curves my smile was makin'
Em                D                    Em
  Bumpers and kickers in one big stream
G                                         D
 I grew up in a life size pin ball machine
Yeah they're mean

[Chorus]
Em
  Coz it's so hard to meet
The eyes that I see
                     D/F#        G
When I try to open up    my heart
                                               D
There's something inside me 'n I know it's good
                     Bm           Em
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile;
D          A              Em
 there's a laugh 'n a half
There's a laugh
   D/F#      G
On my  behalf
                                               D
There's something inside me 'n I know it's good
                     Bm           Em
But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half

[Verse 3]
Em
  I tried to fill some silence
        D
Coz the silence feels so long
G                      D           B/D#
 I knew the ice was gettin' thinner
           Em
But I kept skating on
                                        D
My mother threw me into this world as a winner
But by the light of the yellow beer
G               D          Bm
 they tell jokes I'll never  get to hear

[Chorus]
Em     D/F#      G
  On my    behalf
There's something inside me 'n I know it's good
D                     Bm           Em
 But understanding is misunderstood
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half
There's a laugh
   D/F#      G
On my  behalf
                                               D
There's something inside me 'n I know it's good
                     Bm           Em
But understanding is misunderstood

[Outro]
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half
There's a laugh 'n a half
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half
There's a laugh 'n a half
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half
There's a laugh 'n a half
At the end of a smile;
D         A              Em
 ther's a laugh 'n a half
