Mess of Things

mess of things- Michael McDermott - www.Michael-McDermott.com F the sweet kentucky rain, hit the new york street F F i was on the lamb, i was in retreat Bb but i swore i?d never let this happen again F but i?m on 23rd waiting on a friend Bb this city, girl, got the best of me F F and taught me how to make a mess of things F through recent history i have never known F this feeling of feeling so alone Bb listen to me i?ve said it before F that i love you and will forevermore Bb like a poet writes, a singer sings F F and you and i, make a mess of things Dm C Bb the circus lights shine as bright as day F and i?m terrified by what you might say Dm C Bb sometimes i behave just like a kid Gm F but i love you and i always did F the trouble with trouble is that it sometimes sticks F plays tricks with your mind while it gets its kicks Bb and slowly there?s a momentum shift F and the weight becomes too great to lift Bb i woke up last night, i heard my mama scream F F saying boy you always make a mess of things Bb what will become babe, of you and me F F cuz we keep on making a mess of things
