     The problem is all inside your head she said to me
Em                  --1222         G6(320000) B4
   The answer is easy if you take it logically
     B        Em       D6          Cmaj7           B7
I'd like to help you - in your struggle to be free

     She said it's really not my habit to intrude
            Em                    --1222                 G6                  B4
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
B            Em            D6      Cmaj7          B7
But I'll repeat myself - at the risk of being crude
                       Em      Am7                       Em Am7 B7
