“Slow down.” he said.
      Em       B7
“Slow down, my friend.”
      Em       B7           Em      B7
“Step back and think things through.”
      Em       B7
“It’s sad.” he said,
     Em             B7
“But you’ve been mislead.”
      Em          B7       Em   E7
“Told things that were not true.”

Who do I trust?

I trust no one, I guess.

G                     Cmaj7
I don’t want to get involved.
                          Em
Don’t call me ‘til it’s resolved.
                       A7
I don’t want to lose a friend,
   B7
Or two.
Em       B7         Em         B7
“Oooo my friends. I won’t pick sides.”
        Em      B7       Em  E7

Am         D7             G      Em
Life’s too short for this stupid stuff.
Am         D7        Em  E7
Life’s too short for this.
Am         D7             G      Em
Life’s too short for this stupid stuff.
Am         D7        Em
Life’s too short for this.
