Introdução:
A D A
I don't mind, no it feels just fine
D A E
No it feels just fine when I lose my mind
A D A
And it looks so nice when it's flying right by
D A E D
Now I don't mind when I lose my mind
D A E D
My whole life I've been losing my mind
verse 2
A D A
It was 1989 when I lost my mind
D A E
For the very first time I went down in the mine
A D A
Going down in the mine I didn't know what I'd find
D A E
But whatever I'd find, say that it was mine
A D A
And I brought a little bird, it was short lived
D A E
And I lost my mind when the little bird died
A D A
Because as I stopped to cry for the little bird's life
D A E
For the moment my mind was out of my sight
A D A
And I turned back around to a terrible surprise
D A E D
I had lost my mind for the very first time
D A E D
I lost my mind for the very first time
verse 3
A
Since I was a child, they tried to let me slide
A E
Then I lost it twice, they said it was a crime
F#m D A
And my hands were tied, I was read my rights
D A E
It was a real short list written in little, tiny type
F#m D A
And they built their perfect prison and locked me inside
D A E
I cried, "this is so wrong," they said "It's alright"
F#m D A
And then a plate full of pills, I swallowed them dry
D A E
I was displayed in a cage, they claimed, in the name of science
F#m D A
And they probed, prodded, realigned my spine
D A E
'Til they said I could walk in a straight enough line
F#m D A
And then they pushed me back out into the bright sunlight
D A E
I didn't know what it meant to be institutionalized
F#m D A
Yeah I begged for readmission, it was denied
D A E D
Where do you reside when you've lost your mind?
D A E D
Where you gonna hide when you lose your mind?
verse 4
A D A
So I went back to where I had last seen my mind
D A E
He was sitting right there with his eyes real wide
A D A
And looking into mine said "I apologize
D A E
But being confined is something I cannot abide
A D A
But if you'll take me back we'll give it one more try"
D A E D
Then we hugged, high fived and stayed up all night
F#m D A
In the light I realized they were all just lies
D A E
He had robbed me blind and hadn't said goodbye
F#m D A
I was too desirous, so unwise
D A E D
I got excited and I lost my mind
D A E D
Why, oh why, must I lose my mind?
Verse 5
A D A
Since then it's been a struggle just to stay alive
D A E
Suicide seems superior than trying to survive
A D A
That's why when I'm in your sight, there'll be no sign of a smile
D A E
But the sound of a sigh I am happy to provide
A D A
Lastly, never ask me, "can I know your mind?"
D A E
No, my mind is too wild, it's the wandering kind
A D A
And I never know when it might be likely to arrive
D A E D
So I don't mind when I lose my mind
D A E D
No, I don't mind when I lose my mind
D A E D
No, I don't mind when I lose my mind
