Verse 1
A
Friday night I crashed your party
A
Saturday I said I'm sorry
A                               E
Sunday came and trashed me out again
      Bm
I was only having fun
       G
Wasn't hurting anyone
       E                                    A (Intro Riff)
And we all enjoyed the weekend for a change

Verse 2
A
I've been stranded in the combat zone
A
I walked through Bedford Sty alone
A                              E
Even rode my motorcycle in the rain
        Bm
And you told me not to drive
      G
But I made it home alive
       E                                A
So you said that only proves that I'm insane

                  E                                  A

           D               E                    A  (Intro Riff)

Verse 3

A
Remember how I found you there
A
Alone in your electric chair
A                                E
I told you dirty jokes until you smiled
         Bm
You were lonely for a man
       G
I said take me as I am
           E                              A (Intro Riff)
'Cause you might enjoy some madness for a while


Verse 4

A
Now think of all the years you tried to
A
Find someone to satisfy you
A                          E
I might be as crazy as you say
   Bm
If I'm crazy then it's true
          G
That it's all because of you
        E                          A
And you wouldn't want me any other way

                  E                                  A
