[C#] If there's lessons to be l[E]earned,
[B] I'd rather get my jammin' [C#]words in first, boy
[C#] Tell ya something that I've [E]found,
That the [B]world's a better place when it's [C#]upside down, boy
[C#] If there's lessons to be [E]learned,
[B] I'd rather get my jammin' [C#]words in first, boy
[C#] When you're playing with de[E]sire,
Don't come [B]running to my place when it [C#]burns like fire
